I feel nothing regarding Saddam's execution...

Advertisements [?]

Maybe when it happens it will hit me, but right now I feel nothing either way. I do not favor capital punishment by any means, I believe it is immoral and if even one innocent person is falsely executed than that is one too many, yet I cannot muster any sympathy for Saddam. I thought maybe I could. Right now I can't. It is sort of disturbing me. Sure he has committed some heinous crimes, but is it our ("our" as in humanity or society) decision and/or right to make him pay the ultimate penalty?

I don't think it is, yet I have no sadness over his impending death.
