كيفما تكونوا يول عليكم

I think the reason July in Iraq has had so many revolutions is because it's so insanely hot that it drives people ape-crazy. Just look at this, now I don't know what these guys did to the Iraqis at the time, but I'd bet it'd be only a fraction of what Saddam and his boys did, so you can imagine the pulp he'd have been if THIS is the fate of the comparatively-civil Hashemites and their minister al-Said, the only thing that escaped Saddam Sahil Carnival was...the presence of the Americans, and to top it off, the lucky bastard had a fantastic execution he could only dream of thanks to sectarian stupidity. These are from Zeyad's, but he was a gentleman at the time and did not publish them in the post itself, linking to an outside source while warning you that they are gruesome, I'm posting them full-on, you need to see this and appreciate the work of God's creation, it's nice to know the world isn't so nice.
Looking at this, I must say that Saddam was indeed a product of his environment.
