Hanging Saddam Hussein

They’ve put on a show in Iraq with a total circus they are calling a trial. They are surely going to hang that old tyrant in a symbolic gesture. Knowing the bloodthirsty Arabs in that part of the world it will be a nationwide primetime television event. After the hanging you can count on those folks doing what they do best, killing everyone they can.

You can complain about Hussein all you want but even with his executioners and their killing machines they haven’t come close to matching what’s been going on since he was removed from power.

That takes me to my position on Iraq and Iran. Why are we in Iraq watching our kids in uniform die? I understood the necessity to take action against a rogue nation. Then there’s Iran, another outlaw country that is under the control of another mad dictator. The populations of both countries hate America.

Rather than risk our troops this was a simple job for one or two nuclear missiles. No quagmire, no American caskets and a lot less expense to the American taxpayers.

We need to get out of that part of the world now! If they can’t behave over there then it’s time to reduce all those miserable, Muslim cutthroats into little toasted cinders.

AN UPDATE! Saddam Hussein along with his half-brother, Barzan al Tikriti, head of the feared Mukhabarat intelligence and Awad Hamed al Bander, former chief judge in the Revolutionary Court, has been sentenced to hang.

An appeal of the verdict and sentence won’t be going to our 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco any time soon. These guys will be dancing at the bottom of their ropes in short order.

I agree with you to a point. However I don't think we should waste our nukes on that region. We can't build any more, so the ones we have need to be saved for a real war.

Let Israel do it.

I've always made the argument that Iran is about 50% of the reason we're in Iraq, and probably 75% of the reason we maintain forces in Iran.

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

The origin of the feature film, COME FRIDAY…

CLick On the pictures to see full size versions. Long ago there was a young lady I had the hots for in a big way (Yes, I know that hots is not a word). She was pretty, incredibly bright, and had some real elegance about her. She had a love for children and basic kindness that you don’t often see in someone her age. I met her parents and could understand she came from a much more stable home than mine. I was raised by a single, welfare mom and suddenly found myself way out-classed. For whatever reasons things did not workout they way I had hoped. Sadly for me, we went on our separate ways. From time to time I’d run into this lady in various places where our job had taken us. Whenever this happened my heart would skip a beat or two. I left my hometown Chicago, and moved to Arizona where I founded my detective agency. As a private eye and soon a TV news producer too, my career took me to the highest profile criminal events in Arizona and throughout the country. There’s no question that ...

Tyranny, Government Corruption and Democide

Americans like to think they are exceptional. Yet most couldn’t tell you the first thing about how governments, like clockwork, repeat the same bloody cycles of tyranny and collapse. Everyone assumes the Nazis hold the crown for worst government in history. Sure, Hitler’s crew were sadistic thugs who industrialized murder. But “the worst”? Not even close. They just happened to do their killing during a time when cameras, film, and bureaucratic obsession with record-keeping made their atrocities impossible to hide. If Goebbels had been working with the technology of Genghis Khan, you’d barely have a postcard left to prove it. History is littered with tyrants who weren’t so kind as to leave photo albums of their mass murders. The Turks tried to erase the Armenians. Stalin starved Ukraine into submission during the Holodomor, then doubled down by purging his own people until the bodies stacked higher than Lenin’s promises. Mao made Stalin look like an amateur, turning his “Great Leap F...
