Merge?[edit]

I would like to see a vote on merging this with the execution of saddam hussein page, to create a Trial and Execution of Saddam Hussein page.. thanks! Crocitto49 21:56, 19 January 2007 (EST)

No, 2 different things totally! Clearly the trial and penalty of Saddam Hussein should be combined. But honestly who cares. this whole article is horrible, and should be deleted.Mantion (talk) 01:55, 15 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

International reactions[edit]

This section is mostly garbage. --192.75.48.150 (talk) 17:29, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

First hearing[edit]

What was the first hearing for? The trial began 19 October 2005, so what was the purpose of the hearing on 1 July 2004? This not mentioned anywhere in the article. howcheng {chat} 07:02, 10 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

lead section[edit]

"Saddam Hussein was executed by hanging on December 30, 2006. With his death, all other charges were dropped." Am I the only person to notice the pun there, sorry to be off topic, but I wanted to point it out (part of me is saying that we shouldn't have puns in something like this, it isn't appropriate) ConconJondor _talk ^contribs 20:03, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
