The ROUGH Execution Of Saddam Hussein - The 5th President Of Iraq

One of the most infamous executions of the 21st century was when Saddam Hussein the President of Iraq went to his death on the Gallows inside a prison in Baghdad. The War in Iraq remains controversial today, as it was claimed that the Iraqi's had weapons of mass destruction and that Saddam was willing to sell them to terrorists. However after a number of raids, forces stormed a farm near to Tikrit, and Saddam was found hiding inside of a tunnel armed with a Glock pistol. He was disarmed and then was brought to trial to stand charges of execution and mass killing.

Saddam Hussein was then found guilty of these charges, and was sentenced to death for his crimes. His execution was hastily arranged, and he wanted to be executed by a firing squad but he would not get this wish and was instead to be executed on the gallows. His final moments were rather angry and fractious as the members of the execution chamber who witnessed the proceedings shouted things at him. Saddam went down fighting also, as he would shout back but as soon as the trapdoor was opened he was executed.
