Plus, this hanging would just the situation in Iraq worse than it is actually.
I voted justice, because come on, if you put him in prison he's likely to escape the way Iraq is going nowadays. Putting him to death puts an end to his government once and for all, and the Iraqi people really need that. Hence why they voted to execute him. He definitely deserved execution (he gassed his own people deliberately - mustard gas is a horrible way to die), but it does feel more like we executed him, not the Iraqis.

@Assassin: He's lucky to be hanged. Traditionally executions in Muslim nations are public beheading - he got off easy in that respect.
