The Violence Channel - All Violence 24/7, Watch It!

The internet village can't get enough of seeing human slaughter transmitted through fiber-optic signal lines -- ever since beheadings were broadcast from Iraq during the beginning of the current Gulf War, the public keeps clammoring for more and more video of people actually get snuffed.

So we all waited with baited-breath for the secreted, near-stop motion video footage of Saddam getting the noose... and then it was available for us all to see and relive on Google Video 24/7 (close to three million people have seen the killing on that Google site, and it's rated with like 3.5 star??! That's fucking sick, just shows how outrageous we still really are as people -- that many people watching it makes me remember those negro lynching photos for the early and middle part of the 20th century... all the white people (men, women & children) hanging around to see the basest killing of another human. I wonder how many people who witnessed lynchings as kids, actually were scarred by the imagery either to crusade against injustice toward Black people or to become dangerous devil-humans themselves? Beating on their wives or children and what not.

The Iraqi Gallows were in some dank basement that looked like something out of a bad scifi film from the '60s, and somebody JUST HAD TO HAVE a video camera in that room -- regardless of the poor taste, the abuse of power it demonstrated or the sadism that we now have to expect from all Iraqis -- to broadcast the death of a warlord president for the whole world to see, and to let it sink in so the outrage can begin. What was it there for ? To prove that Hussein was actually hanged? Wouldn't his dead corpse on display be enough of a convincing act? Why weren't the black masked guards and hangmen searched?

Saddam was definant to the end, even as the Shi'ite executions and guards shouted the praise of that radical cleric Moqtadha al-Sadr, Saddam was pretty much like, fuck you and the American horse you rode in on. I think that Saddam is now being viewed as a marty, because the Shi'ites just had to kill him so damn quickly. What kills me about these executioners is that they're wearing those maudlin black masks that harken back to the days of Louis XVI and the beheadings during the Reign Of Terror.

I don't understand why the Americans didn't write the constitution when they overthrow Saddam (much like what they did in Japan after ww2), in they outlined what the power structure was going to be - 1/4 voting blocks to each of the groups (Kurd, Shia, Sunni and fourth block that ups for grabs), in which the representational officers that make-up each Block is voted on via democratic elections. Then each power group would have a power base to flex their muscle, and we wouldn't have such bitter reactions toward each other or the absurb sectarian violence that's been de rigur for the past couple year.

This way the vengance is mine sayeth Muhammed Shi'ites wouldn't be fucking the country with the way it's being governed now.

Does this seem to hard for the old white men who were runnin' shit to understand? You have to factor in the fact that all these white dudes in power have an vindictive arrogance that reered up after the '90s in which the American white man came under attack by so many different ethnic and minority groups (ever notice that since Dubya has been in power all that talk has gotten REAL quite?), and since they've been runnin' shit (into the ground I might add) they've figured we can flex on niggas and people of color at home, why not the rest of the world? Guess again, huh?

Dubya was always against "nation building" but for a so-called country that never knew anything about being a country in the first place, to rule out that kind of systematic laying down the law has been a fatal mistake.

Do you remember this image? It's of Mussolini after the people of Italy got a hold of him and his bitch when they were trying to escape at the end of WW2.

It came to come 'cause our favoriet Iraqi strongmand got his neck stretched last night. Hard to believe he's actually dead... too bad his fucked-up kids didn't get to be publically hanged as well, Uday and Quesay were some right mean bastards.

The funny thing is, what's the difference between what George Bush and Donald Rumsfield did and what Hussein did? They each instigated wars of aggression, and only Saddam is paying for it. I have to imagine that Dubya and Rummy will never be travelling in Europe anytime soon; particularly Germany 'cause they have standing warrants to arrest those fools for War Crimes.

Can we honestly called the "War On Terror" in Iraq a war crime? Possibly, 'cause at least in Afghanistan we were going after a government that supported the 9/11 Attacks. However, no such evidence ever surfaced with Hussein to justify the subsequent invasions and sad, sad, sad occupation of Iraq.

You have to give it up to Saddam though, he held power nearly as long as Castro and raped and pillaged like the best of them. To top it off, he was defiant till the end! Always sitting up in court claiming that those judges had no right to convict him of anything. He was just doing what he felt he needed to do to maintain his power -- I'm sure Lyndon Johnson and J. Edgar Hoover felt they needed to do the same thing when they signed the death warrants to numerous Black Panthers and other uppity niggers in the '60s -- yeah, I said it! When cut out all the bullshit, Hoover, Nixon and Johnson were complict in the execution of numerous notorious negro aggitators... and we never called them murderers. I figure half the original founders and leaders of the OSS and CIA signed the death warrants for a bunch of "undesirables", too, and they were lauded as heroes.

So what I'm trying to say -- it's all bullshit, whoever gets killed by a government. Pinochet never stood trial, yet I'm sure he probably personally killed or oversaw the killing of people in Chile during his brutal reign.

Well, once the Iraqu civil war is over and the country is divided in three, and people begin to write about what happened during the Saddam years, I'm sure will have some interesting books and memoirs -- that is, if any of those people survive the current fuck-shit that's going over there... but is that my problem?! Hell no, 'cause I'd be handling that shit differently. I wouldn't have dismantled the army (like the US did to the Wehrmacht at the end of Nazi Germany), 'cause at lose people had some military training, and they would have had jobs (i.e. food, money and access to contrabad shit) to assuage the anger that instantly turns to violence among Arab peoples... and I would have installed another strongman, who I'd then kill after a few years, and then allow a democratic government. Also, the US should have written the Iraqi constitution the way MacArthur did with Japan -- that way the ethnic power struggles wouldn't be in effect. It kills me that this wasn't part of the plan, the concept of Nation Building is EXACTLY what should have happened there, and yet it didn't for inexplicable reasons -- well, that's not true -- the arrogance of a fundamentalist Christian president and his "we can conquer sand-niggers, no problem" cabinet and staffers thought differently.

I just wish those fucked in the nuts Hussein kids could stand trial, or at least get them to testify in front a psychological review board!
