Two former Saddam comrades executed
Saddam had a brother and his head *popped* off:
Two of Saddam Hussein's former comrades were executed in Baghdad Monday, including his half-brother Barzan al-Tikriti, the government said.
Iraqi government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh told a news conference in Baghdad that Tikriti, who headed the intelligence service under Saddam, and the former head of the Revolutionary Court Awad al-Bandar, were hanged at dawn "according to legal conditions."
He added, however, that in "a rare case," Tikriti's head was dismembered at the time of the hanging, which forensic experts said could happen if the execution was carried out in an inappropriate manner.
Director of Jordan's National Forensic Center, Momen al-Hadidi, told United Press International the hanging seemed to have been "inferior" and lacked "international standards provided in the rope" in terms of its quality and length.
International standards in a hanging rope? That seems oddly humane considering the butchers we are talking about. PC and the press prevail once more.
