Apparently Putin told Nicolas Sarkozy that he wanted to hang the Georgian President by the balls after Sarkozy told Putin that the world would not accept the overthrow of Georgia. Here is part of the exchange:
“I am going to hang Saakashvilli by the balls,” Putin replied (to Sarkozy regarding the overthrow statement)
Sarkozy responded: “Hang him?”
“Why not? The American hanged Saddam Hussein,” Putin said.
Sarkozy replied, using the familiar “tu”: “Yes but do you want to end up like (President) Bush?”
Putin was briefly lost for words, then said: “Ah, you have scored a point there.”
Two things are interesting there. First, Bush didn’t hang Saddam, the Iraqi’s did. The U.S. doesn’t allow hanging anymore (although we should…). Second, Saddam was brutal dictator that not only defied the world, but murdered his own people. Saakashvilli is nether.
