Now, posting the videos that can be seen on all the news channels is certainly OK, but what about posting links to the entire execution? Where you actually see him die? It's done in the following posts:

Note: I haven't clicked the links, so I'm only taking the posters words for it.

But Saddam was the most evil man around. He was Satan incarnate.

Please don't debate your point in the moderation forums. That is what the General forum is for. [/notamod]

He is still a human, and would you like it if somebody came along and showed a video of some other random person being MURDERED. Yes, it is murder, but instead of it being illegal, it is called an execution. Think of it as murder of a human, and of any human. It doesn't matter what that person did.

[/trying to give reasons why links to that shouldn't be around]

That doesn't change our TOS and the fact that it bans obscenity, violence, and gore. I didn't love the man either, but y'all are going to have to do without linking to watching his death from THIS site.

Go google it if you need to satisfy your interest.
