Saddam’s public execution barbaric

Dear Sir,

My holidays have just been ruined. In the middle of this season of peace, and throughout all the calling for a happy, I had to watch over and over as Saddam Hussein is being put to death on TV. This is such a barbaric act, sir I understand that Saddam was said to have done evil things, but many leaders in the world have also done evil things, and they were not hung. He should have faced his accusers, and be able to answer their accusations in a humane manner, and punished in a way that did not result in a public execution.

Sir, I have a bad feeling about this matter. I feel that the good Lord will not be pleased about this public display of brutality. It is the Lord’s right to send down vengeance on man; and not man to man, and I think the Lord’s vengeance is at hand. Saddam may have been wicked, but his execution in full public viewing is just as wicked.
