Iraq is no Switzerland!!! Iraq has a very dangerous so they really need to kill off as many terrorists as possible, right??

Terror has become a meaningless media buzzword.

I hope to goodness the charges were something more than terrorism, such as actually killing people. You know, not planning to kill to kill, not making bomb threats here and there, or just having a gold membership card for some group labeled terrorists, but actually making people dead.

It would be nice to see more meaningful details, than just a bland "terrorism related charges", as if that is somehow anywhere near explaining why 21 were state murdered in a single day.

Not even a name mentioned here.

If they keep this pace up, they may soon overtake Saddam Hussein. Their goal perhaps?

Don't be so sure they were terrorists. There is absolutely nothing here to go on but faith even blinder than usual. What possible reason could we have to think Iraq is dispensing justice? Remember, this is the same country that threw itself into a brutal war with Iran under Saddam Hussein's leadership. They did not turn into a pack of thoughtful, caring gentlepeople overnight just because they occupied by American soldiers for several years.

Very dodgy, and what a convenient way to silence people. I bet they were either all Sunni or all Shiite, depending on which group is in power now.....

Iraq - Oil, religious extremists and state murder. Iraq resembles Bush's home state.

The Yankees are stacking the deck and are in violation of anti-trust statutes. Unfair competition! How the heck did they get Ichairo?

Amnesty International used to be a respected human rights protection group. Npw they are just another bunch of far left whiners trying to overturn the the duly legislated policies of democratically elected governments.

What, are they trying to catch up with Iran and China?

Given Iraq's past, they may be ahead of Iran already. They don't get a clean slate just because Saddam is gone. And this news shows why.

I doubt that Iraq has surpassed IRAN in these executions, Iran is in virtual peace, but poor Iraq is still in the middle of a civil war.
