Hangings

Good Morning. A few new items to start the year...

The way Saddam Hussein was hanged isn't the emebarrassment. The skittish reaction by those who choreographed his assassination was the embarrassment. See:

• "Schlock and Flaw of Saddam's Hanging"
  
• "The Assassination of Saddam"
• "What Do We Tell Our Children?"

• Reflections on the New Year: "Elegy for Two Cardinals"
• From L.D. Amabed Jr: "New Year"

Plenty more in the Daily Journal. Thanks for reading.pt
