Saddam Hussein Hanging - Execution Pictures WARNING: GRAPHIC PICTURES. NOT FOR SENSITIVE VIEWERS. The hanging execution of Saddam Hussein, the former Iraq leader on December 30, 2006. A barbaric end to a cruel and ruthless dictator. This is not typical of the type of content we place on this website, but there has been so much interest about the controversial method of his execution, that we will temporarily post these pictures. People need to be aware of the brutal nature of hanging. The practice of hanging and other forms of torture should be halted worldwide, even for people as evil and cruel as Saddam Hussein. Hanged people are briefly alive and thinking, even after their neck is broken and trachea ("wind pipe") is ripped open by the rope. There are more humane types of execution available, such as painless lethal injection. World leaders should be setting examples of a higher ethical standards than to perpetuate this form of torture. There are 16 photographs. If you have a slow internet connection it could take a few minutes to load.
