2. They did look like terrorists
Historically the executioner wears a mask of some sort, but everyone in that room with Hussein was wearing a balaclava -- the same thing the militias and death squads wear.

Also it was reported that one of the masked men shouted "Long live Moqtada al-Sadr" just before Hussein was executed. How sad if true.

Saddam deserved what he got. But I will never accept kangaroo courts and sadistic vengefulness as democracy.
