Saddam Autopsy Footage

SuperGlobalVideos

“While officially released footage of the event stopped short of showing the actual execution, an amateur video shot using a camera phone from a staircase leading up to the gallows surfaced, contained low-quality footage of the entire hanging.  The amateur footage, unlike the official footage, included sound; witnesses could be heard taunting Saddam at the gallows,” states Wikipedia.

Wikipedia states that on January 3rd, 2007, the Iraqi government arrested the guard who they believe made the mobile phone video of Saddam’s execution, though it was too late to prevent the video from spreading across the internet.  Iraqi National Security Advisor Mowaffak al-Rubaie later held a press conference where he announced that three arrests had been made in connection with the investigation into the video recording and leak.

Wikipedia:  “A week later, another video surfaced on the Internet, which showed Saddam’s body with a large neck wound, creating speculation that the execution had been carried out incorrectly.”

Ever see the Saddam Hussein autopsy video from the morgue? Does it look like the hanging went well?

Was the execution carried out in a professional way?

How come we don’t have video footage like this of Hitler?  Just wondering…

CNN: Grand Jury Won’t Indict Officers In Dallas Shooting

Secular Talk

Two Dallas officers who shot a schizophrenic, bipolar man holding a screwdriver within 20 seconds of arriving at his family’s doorstep last June will not be indicted, according to CNN and ThinkProgress.

Officers John Rogers and Andrew Hutchins shot Jason Harrison, 38, who suffered from bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, after they ordered him to drop the screwdriver, states Al-Jazeera.

“The family is obviously severely disappointed,” said attorney Geoff Henley.  Henley is representing Harrison’s family in a federal civil-rights lawsuit that was filed last October, states Al-Jazeera.  Henley also said,  “…(T)his isn’t going to affect our case. We’ll continue to move forward.”

Dennis Quaid Onset Rant: Real Or Fake?

TYT Network

Recently, a video surfaced of an onset meltdown by Dennis Quaid.

According to Variety: “In the expletive-laden tirade, seemingly captured on a crew member’s phone, Quaid takes someone to task for walking onto set and interrupting his line, before an off-camera speaker tries to calm him down. ‘Don’t f—ing ‘Dennis’ me, I am doing my job here, I’m a pro! This is the most unprofessional set I have ever been on,’ Quaid retorts, hurling a few more insults before apparently storming off set.”

Entertainment Weekly claims the rant was fake, but Jimmy Kimmel wasn’t behind it.

It came from the comedy outlet Funny or Die.

The YouTube Interview with President Obama

Yesterday, YouTube personalities Bethany Mota, GloZell Green and Hank Green interviewed President Obama about the top issues facing them and their audiences.

Fox News expressed outrage, claiming that President Obama’s interviews with three YouTube stars were “beneath the dignity of the office.”

Think Progress: Official Republican Website Posts Doctored Version Of State Of The Union

According to ThinkProgress, the official website for John Boehner and the House Republicans posted a YouTube version of President Obama’s State of the Union address that cuts out comments where the President was critical of Republican rhetoric on climate change.

In the website’s “enhanced webcast” of the State of the Union speech, comments criticizing Republicans for saying they are “not scientists” when it comes to climate change are erased.

At the 43:25 minute mark, President Obama is supposed to say “I’ve heard some folks try to dodge the evidence by saying they’re not scientists; that we don’t have enough information to act. Well, I’m not a scientist, either. But you know what — I know a lot of really good scientists at NASA, and NOAA, and at our major universities. The best scientists in the world are all telling us that our activities are changing the climate, and if we do not act forcefully, we’ll continue to see rising oceans, longer, hotter heat waves, dangerous droughts and floods, and massive disruptions that can trigger greater migration, conflict, and hunger around the globe.”

However, that entire section is skipped. Obama’s comments resume with “…(C)limate change poses immediate risks to our national security. We should act like it.”

The 43:25 minute mark is not the only place where the video is incomplete. At the 44:51 minute mark, a section is missing where Obama spoke of respecting “human dignity,” prohibiting torture, and speaking out against anti-Semitism.

The section that is missing reads as follows: “As Americans, we respect human dignity, even when we’re threatened, which is why I’ve prohibited torture, and worked to make sure our use of new technology like drones is properly constrained. It’s why we speak out against the deplorable anti-Semitism that has resurfaced in certain parts of the world.”

A spokesperson for House Speaker John Boehner’s office did not immediately respond to ThinkProgress’ request for comment on whether the missing information was intentional or not.

New ISIS Video Purportedly Shows Child Executing Russian Spies

TYT Network

There is a new ISIS video that purportedly shows a child executing Russian spies. According to Buzzfeed, the video is from November.  The boy, who appears to be about 10, says in Kazakh that his name is Abdallah.

Kazakh officials appeared to confirm that video’s authenticity by first insisting that outlets in Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan delete it, then claiming to know the children’s identities. Most of the children traveled to Syria with their families, Kazakh deputy prosecutor Andrei Kravchenko told local media in December, adding that the country’s secret services were working on repatriating them.
