Abstract

The article focuses on the celebration of the Eid al-Adha in Palestine following the execution of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. The celebration was marked with nausea and loss of appetite and joy. She states that the timing of the execution was hurtful for the Sunnis and the Shi'i's role in the execution is an incitement to religious conflict. Demonstrations in streets were held by Palestinians in Gaza and West Bank to mourn for the former president.
