The Guardian reports that hundreds of partygoers trashed a house after being invited on MySpace.
Up to 200 teenagers from across the country trashed a family house while the parents were away after their daughter advertised a party on MySpace, police said today.
That will teach anyone to advertise a party online! Apparently, several teenagers travelled all the way from London to join the party madness. That’s about 300 miles to travel with no where to stay. Strange people!
BBC News and the Guardian are both reporting that Iran has decided to hand over the 15 British sailors that were captured as a gift to Britain.
I’m sorry? A gift? Since when has handing over 15 illegally captured Britons been called a gift?
Stating GPS coordinates inside Iraqi waters and then later changing your mind so they’re inside Iranian waters doesn’t bode well, let alone parading and forcing confessions on national TV.
At least they’re free now.
I’m not sure if I agree with the hanging of Saddam Hussein.
No person should think that what he has done to the Iraqi people is any good, but no good will come from taking his life. He’ll just be called a martyr by those that supported his cause.
Various video and photographic accounts of the hanging are already online and easily findable. You can see a censored video on Hotair and if you really want to watch the uncensored version, I’m sure you’ll be able to find it yourself.
How people can rejoice in watching the death of another, whether that person is a terrorist, dictator or tyrant, is beyond me.
Update
Three different articles, reporting the same event.
BBC: Saddam death ‘ends dark chapter’
Guardian: Saddam Hussein executed
In a prepared statement, George Bush cautioned that Saddam’s execution would not stop the violence in Iraq but said it was “an important milestone on Iraq’s course to becoming a democracy that can govern, sustain and defend itself, and be an ally in the war on terror.”

“Saddam will be a hero in our eyes,” said Um Abdullah, a Sunni teacher and teacher in the town, who pledged to wear black to mourn him. ” I have five kids and I will teach them to take revenge on Americans.”
The goings on around the world just seem to get better day by day.
US White House spokesman Tony Snow said: “We expect the UN Security Council to take immediate actions to respond to this unprovoked act.”
“This further act of defiance shows North Korea’s disregard for the concerns of its neighbours and the wider international community.”
