A Clockwork Saddam

[Tarantulady22]

It would be cool if we could "deprogram" Saddam, like in a Clockwork Orange. Only instead of Beethoven (Mozart? Brain fart) we should use Iraqi creepy music and then send him home to get his ass beat.

Yeah, but in the later chapters of the book, Alex over comes the sickness. This was omitted by the movie. However, Saddam would be incapable of any violent act. But, if that was all we did to remove the dictator, another military savoy individual would take over the dictatorship.

I always wondered how well the therapy would work in reality.

I watched about the first 20 minutes of the movie, but after they invaded the house and raped the girl, I kind of lost any desire to watch the movie.

And in the book, Alex gets his ass kicked by all the people he has hurt. Would be kinda cool if the same thing happened to Saddam. Than the yanks wouldn't have to interfere.

sadaam will go insane or kill himself if he doesn't have anyone to oppress

That was not omitted by the movie (remember, "eggie weggies"?) but I didn't mean that we should write Saddam into the freaking story.
If we deprogrammed him, I think he would get more than a slight ass-whoopin'.

What? Did you see the end of the movie? He got over the sickness at the end. Good movie, good book, bad idea. Then again, the brits are on our side...

I think if:

a) he's still alive

and

b) we let it happen,

the Kurds, Shi'ites, Marsh Arabs and tens of thousands of oppressed others would lynch him. They hang him, his sons and other cohorts from the streelights.

That part isn't left out of the movie. Don't you remember the last shot of the movie? When he says "I was cured all righ."?

[implodinggoat]

Hmmmm seems I'm the fifth person to say that. Perhaps I should read the whole post before I start talking.

Yes, he did get over the sickness in the movie, but in the book there is a chapter after that part. It was banned in the American print at first, so that might be why it isn't in the movie, but there was more to it.
