The Taunting Of Saddam Hussein Prior To Execution!
The furor surrounding Saddam Hussein prior to his execution has shown the world just how different priorities, and their execution are taken in different cultures. I would expect as a resident of the USA, and a believer in certain principles of respect for others, that special precautionary procedures would have been put in place before the execution.
My concerns are the following:
* Why were the onlookers or witnesses in the same room that Saddam was, prior to his execution?
* Why wasn't a room adjacent to, or separating the executioner/s and witnesses, with a glass window for all to see what was being done?
* Why wasn't all witnesses told to surrender all cell phones, cameras, or recording equipment, to the security personnel before entering the witness chamber?
* And why weren't the officials made to understand the seriousness, and political ramifications that could result, if these regulations were not carried out?
These are my concerns on this issue. Even though I understand that different cultures have or place different emphases on certain behaviors.
Maybe, that kind of behavior was indicative of the behavior of officials during Saddam's reign!
Whatever is, the damage has been done, because of this major snafu!
