#1 What an absolute crock this plea is. Watch for the usual fifth columnists to fall in behind her. Wesley, Wesley boy, where are you?

#2 He was drugged before his capture?? Hmmm...and then they let him go and captured him again! Yeah, that's it!

#3 The UNHRC should be investigating Saddam for naming his daughter Raghead.

#4 Saddam isn't going to be hurt, Raghad... he's just going to go talk with your husband.

#6 Saddam isn't going to be hurt, Raghad.
I don't know, I'm personally of the opinion that the transition should be as painful as possible. Nothing quite so inhuman as throwing his butt in to a plastics shredder, but tying his arms and legs to four different M1's, all heading in different directions, seems appropriate. But that's up to the Iraqi people to decide. I just want it to be a large jury, all comprised of people who have been raped or tortured by one of Saddam's sons.

#7 Hmmm. I'd suggest she goes to one (just one, don't want to be mean) mass grave, find out the names of the people who were murdered and buried there and then ask each of those families *in person* whether they would agree to an international trial. If she gets one person that says ok, just one, then I say go for it.

I agree with OP - let the Iraqi people decide where he's tried, who by and what the sentence should be (personally I hope it's something that gets the moonbats wetting themselves - something involving wild animals maybe).

#8 I bet she hasn't even visited one mass grave. Sounds like a spoiled little rich tyrant's daughter who everyone was terrified of. Well she can't 'make people disappear' any more can she?

As for Saddam. I think the Iraqi people should be the ones who decide what to do with him. Perhaps she should go to baghdad herself and appeal to the GC.
