Hussein Executed

David Horowitz writes:

As the decent world rejoices let us remember why his rape rooms and acid baths, his plastic shredders and mass graves are now shut down; why his plans to build nuclear and chemical and biological weapons and use them on his enemies are aborted; why his reign is over. For Saddam would be a force for evil in the world today if brave and courageous men and women had not been determined to take him down and had not stayed the course until it was done.

I don't think any man's death is a reason to rejoice, but this execution had to happen. Until his death, this butcher still cast a very long shadow on the people he had terrorized - and the new Iraqi government.

It's obvious that Iraq's road to security and peace will be difficult, but today there is one less impediment.
