I was born in Saudi Arabia. My family (sans my father) fled he nation in 1990 when my mother was pregnant with my younger brother because there was a lot of tension in the area after his march into the city-state of Kuwait which is connected to Al Khobar, KSA by a mere bridge. It's a long bridge, but still a bridge. I lost two additional years with my dad and my mom gave birth without her husband because of him.
My heritage is that of Sh'ia muslim, the sect that Hussein massacred is mass quantities (to say the least) with no emotional distress.
Having a shot of whatever and giving each other High 5's is not the proper reaction to his death. You may want to do cartwheels but do so silently and in your hearts because there are still those of us who have been profoundly impacted by this man. His death brought us little solace
It is the death of a tyrannical dictator, but it is by no means the justification for the American intervention in Iraq, especially since they entered the war unilaterally and the common public does not feel like they exhausted every alternative before deciding to wage an un-winable war.
I do not want to watch him hang, I dont want to see him suffer. I just want to know that he is no more.

Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.
Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown
