VICTORS' JUSTICE Iraq: The Terrible State Murder of Abed Hamid Hamoud
“There was no honour left; ruin and war and the blood was flowing...Sadness, hate and the reign of arbitrary destruction.” ~ Rachid Taha, Algerian Musician and lyricist
Shocking details have emerged from an impeccable source (not named for obvious reasons) of the execution on Thursday 7th June, in Baghdad, of Abed Hamid Hamoud, President Saddam Hussein’s former personal secretary and aide.
Mr Hamoud, fourth on America’s 2003 asinine, juvenile playing card list of Iraq’s sovereign government, has been held in jail since June 2003, after being arrested by US occupying forces.
He was sentenced to death in October 2010 with former Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Tareq Aziz and former intelligence chief Sadoun Shakir, heightening fears for their imminent execution.
“What you have not heard” states the commentator : “is that (Mr Hamoud) was led to his execution whilst under the impression that he was going for a medical check up.
“The Iraqi government didn’t even notify his family or relatives or make arrangements with them to deliver his body.”
A chilling observation on America and Britain’s “New Iraq” is that the Maliki government is: “ … so intent on revenge that they have waved the formalities of telling a person they were taking him to his execution.”
