Hanging Saddam

Undoubtedly Saddam Hussein ruled Iraq with dictatorship, and acquired huge wealth and pleasure for himself at the cost of his nationals. But it is so in every so-termed democratic nation also.

Undoubtedly Saddam Hussein ruled Iraq with dictatorship, and acquired huge wealth and pleasure for himself at the cost of his nationals. But it is so in every so-termed democratic nation also.

In such a situation, hanging of Saddam Hussein evidently under American influence cannot be termed justified even if Saddam Hussein might have been guilty of several massacres. Hyper-power USA should fix some suitable punishment for itself too for failing in tracing weapons of mass destruction in Iraq for which it attacked a sovereign nation. It is time that UNO should formulate some well-studied honest governance-system with suitable checks against its misuse and misconduct to be followed by its members compulsorily to avoid dictatorship in democratic form of governance.
