They got him.
Previous Iraq President Saddam Hussein was captured. As many reporters and commentators say, it is really surprising that he was captured alive. many people assumed that he would rather kill himself than give in. Why didn't he comit a suicide, instead of hiding himself inside a small, dirty pit to be found by American forces?

In a morning news, one reporter said that the situation was similar to that of Chizuo Matsumoto, the leader of Aum. He was also hiding himself in a small place with some money when he was arrested. these two leaders might heve felt the same way. For them, suicide probably meant their ultimate defeat which they never wanted to admit. They were captured with their faiths still remained.

Then, how will American government treat Hussein? Although I don't know about international low very much, I know that it's difficult to execute him because many European countries are against the death penalty. This case won't be as the case of Matsumoto, who was sentenced to death the other day. I have to watch how Hussein will be treated, and how this capture will affect the plan of sending Japanese troops to Iraq.
