I based this poll on the page below, but with an additional choice. (I'm not sure if the link will persist over time, some newspapers shut down access after so many days.)

I think no matter what happens to Hussein, the US will still continue with its plan to restructure Iraq's government and get some sort of foundation (socioeconomical and political) going.

In all truth, the administration would probably prefer to see him and his sons dead. But even if they're alive, keeping them from gaining power again is a start.

i say we find him a little island, and allow him to rule it.

then we can ship all the protesters there to live under his rule.

we can make sure he has a fine collection of wood and plastic shredders.

PERFECT! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif And if it's well isolated, it'll make an ideal location for ordnance "disposal".

Re: If Saddam\'s found alive, the US should...

Too dangerous to be left alive. I'd suggest doing a bunch of brain scans, in hopes we could later diagnose this sort of thing, then put him to sleep. Simple, peaceful, gone. No glory.

I think he should first be de-haired, one hair plucked at a time, and then handed to the Kurds etc for a formal stoning...

Two words:
Pineapple & arse.
Think creatively!

Ah yes, the "Little Nicky" technique, expertly employed in Hell with Hitler, one of my favorite parts of the film.

Re: If Saddam\'s found alive, the US should...

Yes, that's the only scene I've seen in that movie, I was trippin' when I saw that. I guess I left out the French maid's uniform, too.

I don't think he's alive. But if they find him dead:
French maid's uniform
arse
TWO pineapples

Re: If Saddam\'s found alive, the US should...

I'm still not sure if anyone knows if Saddam is dead or alive or gone somewhere. If he is alive but has had one leg blown off, can you imagine the disappointment of his doubles?

Re: If Saddam\'s found alive, the US should...

stake him to a fire ant mound and stir it up?
tie him up in the public square and hand all the citizens daisy spring operated bb guns? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Re: If Saddam\'s found alive, the US should...

Either way, the guy's 6' under... It does beg the question though, since the last big restaurant blast, how everything (command and control, Baghdad Bob, no government offical showin' up for work, etc) came crashing down after that hit...

Re: If Saddam\'s found alive, the US should...

They ought to force-feed him a big pot of chili and 10 boxes of chocolate Ex-lax, and then sew his lips to his rectum.
That ought to take care of him once and for all. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif

Saddam Still Alive and in Iraq - Chalabi (via Yahoo News)

May 12, 2003 - "DUBAI (Reuters) - Pro-American Iraqi politician Ahmad Chalabi said in remarks published on Monday he had credible information that ousted Iraqi president Saddam Hussein and his two sons were still alive and in Iraq."

Re: If Saddam\'s found alive, the US should...

They should do something to him that goes completely against all that he stands for: give him a fair trial.

Re: If Saddam\'s found alive, the US should...

I want to see President Bush going like this: /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/buttrock.gif Which is DEFINITELY what he'll be doing once tey find him. Just don't know if they will publish the footage /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Re: If Saddam\'s found alive, the US should...

let's assume there's 3000 liters of bio/tox in the caches of weapons of mass destruction that bush has preached about.

let's have a cut off date of july 4th.

for every liter they find, saddam gets one lash.

for every liter of the total number minus what was found, bush gets one lash.

seems fair enough.

Re: If Saddam\'s found alive, the US should...

Regarding WMD, there appears to be little evidence so far that Saddam had much; however, based on the economic hardship he caused the country and the hundreds of thousands, if not millions of people that died needlessly during his tenure, I say it's good that he's gone.

It's too bad that the UN couldn't agree on firm action a long time ago, leaving it to the US and the UK to solve the problem.

During the coming years while Iraq opens the oil wells again to rebuild their country, we'll benefit from lower gas prices. For a while, OPEC will be less able to manipulate price and supply.

I'm hopeful that the human rights situation improves in the Arab world, particularly for women.

Re: If Saddam\'s found alive, the US should...

There is another possibility. we might already have him. Perhaps our government has decided that they can get more info from him if nobody knows we've got him. Better a missing person than a martyr or something like that?
