The left, as usual, is upset.
However, government spokesman Ali al-Dabbagh said al-Tikriti, also known as al-Hassan, the former head of Iraq’s feared secret police, had been decapitated.
“In a rare incident, the head of the accused Barzan Ibrahim al-Hassan was separated from his body during the execution,” Mr al-Dabbagh said.
Another government official described the decapitation as “normal”, although rare, and as “an act of God”.
The incident is set to spark further condemnation of the way the Iraqi government has handled the executions.
Um…
So a prisoner was beheaded. What’s the problem? No one remembered to shout “Allahu akbar”?
