WHY WAS SADDAM HUNG?

Saddam was a top Freemason, apparently number 2 in 1991 (which could explain why Bush, Powell and Schwarzkopf each received their Order of the Bath).
Initiates into Freemasonry have a noose placed around their neck.
During the execution of Saddam the filming stopped after the noose had been placed around Saddam's neck.

Hmm. A message?
