A video of the execution of Saddam Hussein by hanging has hit the web, In the first instance still images where shown by Arab TV stations in the lead up to the hanging. This was shortly followed by actual video footage without sound showing Saddam being led to the gallows, as he recites verses from the Koran a noose is placed around his neck. Then the image fades to black followed by footage of Prime Minister Nouri al- Malaki signing the execution order.
The video of saddam Hussein being hanged can be viewed by clicking the link below the image. Note the first video below is a compilation from several sources and including arab tv stations / website's so is accompanied by arabic music, as well as CNN footage of Saddam in the lead up to the hanging.

Translated transcript of the exchange in Saddam's final minutes prior to being hanged
Saddam - Oh God.
Crowd - May God's blessings be upon Muhammad and his household.
Crowd - And may God hasten their appearance and curse their enemies.
Crowd - Moqtada [Al-Sadr]...Moqtada...Moqtada.
Saddam - Do you consider this bravery?
Crowd - Long live Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr.
Crowd - To hell.
Crowd - Please do not. The man is being executed. .
Saddam - There is no God but Allah and I testify that Muhammad is the messenger of God. There is no God but Allah and I testify that Muhammad...
At this point the trapdoors open and Saddam is hanged.
The taunting of Saddam by a predominantly Shiite crowd is going to anger the Sunni community.
The European Union condemned Saddam Hussein's execution on Saturday, with one top official calling it a barbaric act that could create an undeserved martyr of the former Iraqi president. “You don't fight barbarism with acts that I deem as barbaric. The death penalty is against the values of the European Union,” said Louis Michel, EU commissioner for developments and humanitarian aid. |

Heres more on the taunting of saddam
In video footage of the execution, apparently captured on a mobile phone and spreading across the Internet on Sunday, December31 , the hangers can be clearly heard chanting "Moqtada, Moqtada, Moqtada," and "Mohammad Baqir Al-Sadr," according to Al-Jazeera satellite channel.
The reference is to Moqtada Al-Sadr, a firebrand Shiite scholar whose Mahdi Army militia is blamed for much of the sectarian bloodshed in chaos-marred Iraq, and his father Mohammad Baqir Al-Sadr.
One of the execution party calls: "Long live Mohammed Baqir Al-Sadr!"
"Go to hell," said another.
Saddam appears angry but remains composed in his final minutes, standing on a dusty steel platform in a dark hall in a north Baghdad military base, his hands bound and a rough hemp rope round his neck, reported Agence France-Presse (AFP).
As the Sunni leader drops through the metal trapdoor his final prayer, the "Shahadah" or the testimony of faith, is caught short: "There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is his prophet. There is no god but Allah and Muhammad..."
Noise erupts in the room as the filmmaker struggles to get a shot of Saddam's face, hanging lifeless to one side. "The tyrant has fallen, damn him!"
Saddam was executed by the Iraqi government at dawn on Saturday, December30 , in a former military intelligence building in the Khadimiyah district of Baghdad.
The69 -year-old strongman had been convicted of crimes against humanity in the case of the village of Dujail, a Shiite community north of Baghdad where in 1982 Saddam survived an assassination attempt.
Saddam fell in March2003 , when a US-led invasion force took Baghdad, and he was arrested by American commandos after nine months on the run.
He was tried by a new Shiite-led government and convicted on November 5 after a year-long series of rowdy hearings, marked by boycotts from his lawyers and by political grandstanding from the defendants.
That some Sadr supporters, described by the Pentagon as the most dangerous faction in Iraq's current sectarian war, were present at Saddam's death seems likely to increase tension in the country after the execution.
Iraqi state television showed a different video of the execution in which the exchange was not audible, and which cut away before the trapdoor opened. |
