Jon, al Jazeera is reporting (on the English page, natch) that some of The Street is happy today:
In Sadr City, a Shia area of Baghdad, people danced in the streets while others fired guns in the air to celebrate the former leader’s death.
Kurds also welcomed the hanging and the office of the Kurdish regional president, Massud Barzani, issued a statement saying: “We hope that Saddam Hussein’s execution will open a new chapter among Iraqis and the end of using violence against civilians.”
But another page says that while Iran and Israel are finally agreed on something, Hamas, Libya, and Saudi Arabia aren’t thrilled, and Fatah is complaining the excution is ruining the holidays for them.
