BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- President Bush said Thursday that he wished Saddam
Hussein's execution had "gone in a more dignified way."

The remark was Bush's first on-camera response to the chaotic scene
captured in a cell-phone recording of the former Iraqi dictator's hanging.

"But nevertheless, he was given justice," the president added during a news
conference with visiting German Chancellor Angela Merkel. "The thousands of
people he killed were not."

Bush said Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki had assured him during a
two-hour conversation earlier in the day that the execution and its
recording would be investigated. (Watch Hussein taunted on the gallows

"One thing is for certain," Bush said. "A horrific chapter
in Iraqi history
has been closed."
