Saddam's Trial

Today, along with 11 other members of his regime (including Tariq Aziz and Chemical Ali,) Saddam made his perp walk and was arraigned by an Iraqi judge. It wasn't broadcast live, but video and photographs will be released later in the day. This is nothing less than one of the most spectacular displays of justice being done in our time. Imagine if there had been a public trial of Adolf Hitler? This is along those lines. The new Iraqi government has said they will televise the trial for all to see. They're calling it "the trial of the century," minus Johnnie Cochran. There's still time, though.

It is interesting to note the way MSNBC and CNN writes their headlines for this. No liberal bias there, right?

I am Saddam Hussein, the president of Iraq," Saddam twice said...

Sounds like it would make a great new Dr. Seuss Book. "I am Saddam, I am."

and also the part where he still thinks attacking Kuwait was justified and part of Iraq. unreal.

I wouldn't compare him to Hitler now, but he easily could have been if it wasn't for the two wars.

Wouldn't be suprised if he's trying for an insanity plea.

Either way, he's f****d!

Officially, there is no death penalty in Iraq at the moment. Paul Bremer banned it when he was in charge and the new government can't change it until after the elections.

If the old boy goes into general circulation in a prison, it might as well be a death sentence.

Theyre gonna execute him for sure, wonder how theyre gonna do it, lethal injections or electric shock.

Hanging is the traditional capital punishment, but it hasn't been reinstated yet.

They should stone him to death, that way all the Iraqis could take part.

Can you imagine what would happen if here were found innocent....:D

Bush would shoot himself probably
