Hanging of Saddam Hussein


 
Day 1
Hanging of Saddam Hussein

This installation depicts the irony of the tyrant Saddam Hussein by hanging that was carried out from a military base called Camp Justice. Was this just a revenge killing? Did this resolve Iraq’s leadership problem? Was Saddam captive to the idea of dictatorship? George W. Bush had mentioned that he wished the execution “had gone on in a more dignified way.”  After all it was mob justice.
