Anyway, I agree with The HIerophant there, rejoicing on someone's death is not a very good thing. Well, it's in fact something I just can't understand. Even if there were monsters. Think about it, did they get any chance or been raised in a way that gave them any chance not to be monsters ?
You're talking about a guy, who had all the players of the Iraqi national footballteam whipped, after a dissapointing 0-0 draw. You're also talking about the guy who tortured athletes when they didn't perform the way he wanted them to perform.

Are you sure you can't understand why people would celebrate ?

Does this also mean that you can't understand why EVERY romanian went celebrating in the streets when they saw Ceauscescu's elimination on TV ?

Cause i defenitely can understand it.
