    It is NOT normal to be decapitated.

      If you are being hanged, correct.

      If you uses a decapitation device on the other hand....

      No method of execution is less"normal" than any other. It might be less common, yes, but that says nothing about being "normal."

        They were hanged. In a hanging, it's not the norm.

        My theory only, they didn't taunt as they did Hussein, as that was already criticized and under investigation, so this happened instead.

            Yes, there have never been any cases where the guillotine failed to cut through the neck completely or anything.

                Reporters see video of Iraq executions

                08:20 AM CST on Monday, January 15, 2007

                Associated Press

                BAGHDAD, Iraq — The official video of hanging of Saddam Hussein's co-defendants screened for reporters Monday showed the former leader's half brother lying headless below the gallows, his severed head several yards away.

                The video shows Barzan Ibrahim, Saddam's half brother and former intelligence chief, and Awad Hamed al-Bandar, head of Iraq's Revolutionary Court, being hanged side by side.

                They wore red prison jumpsuits. As they reached the gallows, black hoods were put on their heads and five masked men surrounded them.

                After the trap doors opened, al-Bandar could be seen dangling from the rope. Ibrahim's body was lying on the floor, chest down, his severed head resting several yards away.

                The execution was conducted on the same gallows where Saddam was hanged Dec. 30.

                  Oh, I am sorry. They should use a Microsoft guillotine, since we all know that piece of equipment would be utterly dependable, the best decapitation machine EVER!

                  By the way, how is that personal visual inspection of your rectum going? Find anything valuable yet?

                      Wouldn't Apolyton be nicer if everyone who posted in the OTF got permabanned.

                              Damn.. that's screwed up. The US must distance itself from this execution as much as possible. It would be stupid to be caught in the 'hey, you chop off heads too!!' kind of thing. THese kind of things might cost extra lives.

                              I bet it was the dudes who wear the leather jackets and are prolly the local mafia + police. These ****ing idiots are not professional, they couldn't even keep their mouths shut during the execution of Saddam. Track record, 2 events, 2 screw ups. But then again, look at them. They don't even look professional.
