A Palestinian man watches details of the execution of former Iraqi president Saddam Hussein on television, in Jerusalem's Old City, Saturday, Dec. 30, 2006. The execution of Saddam Hussein sent many Palestinians into deep mourning Saturday as they struggled to come to terms with the demise of perhaps their most steadfast ally. Unlike much of the rest of the world, where Saddam was viewed as a brutal dictator who oppressed his people and started regional wars, in the West Bank and Gaza he was seen as a generous benefactor unafraid to fight for the Palestinian cause _ even to the end.(AP Photo/Alvaro Barrientos)AP - Though much of the world regarded him as a tyrant, Saddam Hussein was mourned by Palestinians Saturday as a generous patron who remained one of their staunchest allies.
