I'm the same as Forgetmenot Blue - I watched the executions of three hostages last year (someone in the office called it up on the net - I wouldn't have known where to start to look (nor really would I have been bothered to search). My attention was called to is, and I watched - even though I knew it was horrific. It was actually quite unemotional (if that's the correct word) and clinical - probably I thought that because I have seen far far worse on films on the telly and at the cinema in the name of so-called entertainment. To see an execution taking place in reality is entirely different - I dont think I would have the stomach for it - I cannot abide seeing anyone have an injection - so it's unlikely I would choose to view in any closer quarters than a VDU screen. Morbid curiosity being what it is, no doubt any execution of a major tyrant like Saddam will draw a large audience. I dont actually need to see it performed to agree that it needs to be carried out.

I agree with what Susie says Marie

no i wouldnt but however i do agree with the death penalty.especially for cold blooded murderers,like him!!

I'm still traumatised by the cat I saw get knocked over a couple of months ago, so I don't think I could watch a human being get killed!

My views are the same as Andy's on this one. I have no interest in an awful lot that others find fascinating. I'd be glad to learn that Saddam had met a fate deemed to be appropriate by those who are trying him by the laws of his and their country. After all, they are the people who were forced to endure his reign of terror, so they are in the best position to judge. As far as I'm concerned, those who 'live by the sword' should be prepared to die by it. CB >|<

No, i have already witnessed 2 people die i do not want to see another one.. But i dont disagree with it! xxx

No!!!!!!!!!!

lol Julie! My dad's like that, can't watch any operation on TV, but won't actually admit it! He 'convently' leaves the room!

I wouldn't watch it! I scream at the nose job operations on telly let alone an execution! Julie xxx

Although I said I wouldn't watch it, and that I dont agree with it, I probably would have some kind of curiousity about it.

No, although my reasons are more to do with simply not being in the slightest bit interested in seeing it, rather than for fundamentally moral reasons

Same reply as Em Germaine x

He deserves to have his life taken, but i wouldnt watch it. Donna

I agree with the first few posts. He probably deserves it, but it shouldn't be broadcast and I certainly wouldn't watch.

No Lindy

glad u agree.

Yes, I probably would.

i would say no ,to watching a convicted executed,generally..but.............when some one takes a member off your familys life in front off a child ..................................i would certainly watch him died.

From the evidence there is no doubt of what this person/regime has done...................

Pauline - no he hasn't been guilty from what I know. By the sounds of it I think he will be though!
