Saya memang melihat tayangan video beberapa detik di televisi Amerika yang memperlihatkan jenazah Saddam yang dibalut kafan dengan wajah yang dibuka sampai leher. Saya memang melihat kepalanya berpilin tak wajar ke kiri dengan patahan 90 derajat, dan ada bekas torehan di lehernya. Tapi bisa jadi itu bekas tali gantungan.
Salah seorang algojo bertopeng adalah Moqtada al-Sadr sendiri? Ini benar-benar informasi baru bagi saya. Untuk diketahui, Moqtada al-Sadr adalah mullah syiah pemimpin Laskar al-Mahdi, penguasa de fakto Sadr City, Bagdad. Dia sangat mendendam pada Saddam karena ayahnya Ayatullah Muhammad Sadeq al-Sadr dituduh dibunuh dan mertuanya Ayatullah Muhammad Baqir al-Sadr dieksekusi oleh pemerinth Saddam Hussein. ------- VIDEO: President Saddam Hussein was slaughtered after his death <http://www.uruknet. de/pic.php? f=newiraq6778. jpg> newiraq6778. jpg January 8, 2006 WARNING EXTREMELY GRAPHIC: Uruknet has never published the videos of the assassination of President of Iraq Saddam Hussein by members of the Mahdi Army or any images of Saddam Hussein's body after the lynching. We thought that the respect due to the assassinated President of Iraq was more important than speculating with images already largely in public domain. We publish extremely graphic images only when they absolve the function to inform and bring new facts and highlight the truth. The only images we posted of the assassination of President Saddam Hussein were linked to the statements of two eyewitnesses and of one of Saddam Hussein's lawyers according to which one of the two executioners was Motqada al-Sadr ( <http://www.uruknet. info/?p=29513>http://www.uruknet. info/?p=29513 http://www.uruknet. info/?p=m29619 ) . We have hesitated before publishing the following video that brings new elements of knowledge. The video shows that President of Iraq Saddam Hussein was literally slaughtered (they cut his throat) on the first day of Eid Al-Adha (or Feast of Sacrifice) in what now can be called literally a human sacrifice . Just before the precise moment of the slaughter of the lamb, the first sacrificed lamb was the President of Republic of Iraq, Saddam Hussein. Uruknet.info New video of Saddam's corpse on Internet <http://www.macon. com/mld/macon/ news/world/ 16412380. htm>http://www.macon. com/mld/macon/ news/world/ 16412380. htm QASSIM ABDUL-ZAHRA Associated Press BAGHDAD, Janaury 8, 2006 - A new video of Saddam Hussein's corpse, with a gaping neck wound, was posted on the Internet early Tuesday, the second leaked release of clandestine pictures from the former leader's hanging. The video appeared to have been taken with a camera phone, like the graphic video of the hanging which showed guards taunting Saddam in the final moments of his life. The footage pans up the shrouded body of the former leader from the feet. It apparently was taken shortly after Saddam was executed and placed on a gurney. He was hanged shortly before dawn on Dec. 30. As the panning shot reaches the head region, the white shroud is pulled back and reveals Saddam's head and neck. His head is unnaturally twisted at a 90 degree angle to his right. It shows a gaping bloody wound, circular in shape, about an inch below his jaw line on the left side of his neck. His left cheek is marked with red blotches, and there is blood on the shroud where it covered his head. The newest video leak was likely to increase the angry reaction over the way the execution was carried out. There already has been a global outcry about the undignified manner in which the Shiite-dominated government hanged Saddam, a Sunni. The 27-second video was posted on an Iraqi news Web site that is known to support Saddam's outlawed Baath Party. "A new film of the late immortal martyr, President Saddam Hussein," the web site said in a headline over a link to the video. Voices could be heard on the video. As the shroud is pulled back, one voice says, "Hurry up, hurry up. I'm going to count from one to four. One, two ... . Hurry up you're going to get us into a catastrophe. " Then another voice, apparently the man taking the pictures, says, "Just one second, just one second, Abu Ali. I'm about finished." Then a third voice says, "Abu Ali, you take care of this." It was the second clandestine video to have leaked, the first showing Saddam being taunted in his final moments. That clandestine video showed the former leader dropping through the gallows floor as he offered chanted prayers. It ends with his dead body swinging at the end of a rope. The hanging video was in sharp contrast with an official video that was broadcast not long after Saddam's execution which showed him standing silently on the gallows as the noose was put around his neck. The official video was muted. The leaked hanging video, however, was shot from the floor of the gallows chamber, looking up at Saddam. Voices could be heard taunting him with cries of "Muqtada, Muqtada, Muqtada," referring to radical anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, the leader of the Shiite Mahdi Army militia and a key support of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. The prime minister pushed for Saddam to be executed before the end of 2006 and just four days after the death sentence was upheld by the appeals court. U.S. official sought to delay the execution. source: http://www.uruknet. de/?p=m29644& hd=&size= 1&l=e __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
