  • As a citizen of the USA, I believe we should have never and should never interfere with the Middle East. We as a country have caused more harm than good.
  • @Abbas_IRAQI_
    To the foreigners who did not understand what Saddam said when they ordered his execution (Saddam says, “Long live the people, long live the Iraqi nation, the invasion falls, the invasion falls, America falls, the traitors fall.”
  • @Raul_Menendez_
    It was never about the "weapons of mass destruction" but rather oil and petrol
  • @Awr0307
    Unfortunately somebody decided it would be a good idea not to have subtitles or translation
  • @user-hr9hy9it7q
    His last words when he was shouting were "Long live the people, Long live Iraq, Let traitors be known, let the spies be known, God is great, may the invasion fall, YOU are the losers, you will see the result of your actions, The invaders are you're enemy, they fear me, Every one who went wrong will see the consequences, Iraq will be in shambles because of you, Long live Iraq, Long live the People, God is Great.
  • 1:23 Man.. that is not a reaction of someone who just been sentenced to death I can tell you that
  • @user-po4zz6hl8u
    Being an Iraqi, I say America trained us in its invasion of Iraq, it came in the name of weapons of mass destruction, and they did not find anything. This is a lie and an excuse for their occupation of Iraq. What did they do?
  • @jey524
    Why no subtitles, this is one the most historical moments in the history of mankind
  • @user-uc6cb6mh2n
    I say to America that we Muslims, despite the passage of 20 years, have not yet forgotten... Time is between us and we will see whose victory in the end .

  • @Yiannis172
    A dictator they called him. Look at Iraq now without him.
  • A translation of his favorite lines from an old poem: "Do not brood over the treachery of time. For there always have been dogs dancing on the corpses of lions. Do not think that their dance elevates them above the station of their masters. For a lion shall always be a lion and a dog shall always be a dog" RIP Saddam

  • @erock5010
    Americans thinking hanging Saddam was the best thing that happened to iraq. Wrong. U.S. played a great game of chess here. While he hung, and the people of iraq suffered even more with more terrorist groups wanting to take over, we came in and took that black gold.  “You are going to fail. You are going to find that it is not so easy to govern Iraq.” -Saddam Hussein
  • @YonkoAkagamiShanks
    I love the fact that Saddam Hussein doesn't give a fuck about the judge even when he is talking as fast as he can and about to go breathless 🤣🤣
  • @user-qj7fd1bf2q
