Saddam died courageously

As an Iranian (a Persian) whose nationality was put together by Saddam with the Americans when he asked Iraqis to fight against them both) and as a person whose country and whose people suffered and still suffering tremendously as a result of the US-backed Saddam's attack on Iran, there are many reasons for me to dislike Saddam and his backers, but I have decided that I salute him for facing death with courage. I wonder if "the dady's spoiled criminal son", GW Bush would have the same courage if he faced the same fate.
