Sic Semper Tyrannis

Posted by Craig Freeborn on Saturday, December 30, 2006 10:58:17 AM

On November 5, 2006 Saddam Hussein was sentenced to be hanged by the Iraqi High Tribunal for “crimes against humanity”.  The Washington Times reported that he trembled as he shouted, “Long live the people and death to their enemies.”

 

Fifty-five days later, Freeborn Americans awoke to the news that he got his wish – Saddam Hussein, the Butcher of Baghdad, was hanged this morning before dawn.

 

Saddam was not hanged for the murder of one man, or the murder of 148 Shiites.  He was hanged for the murder, for the torture, for the rape of hundreds of thousands of victims – quite literally crimes against humanity.

 

He truly was the “enemy of the people”.

 

Sic semper tyrannis!
