#1 No wonder there's been hundreds of millions of dollars spent on Saddam's deefense. Brilliance like this doesn't just grow on trees, ya know. It grows in garbage cans, chat rooms, sewing circles, and Govt Ministries.

#2 Unless the Iraqi's plan to kill him with spoons, Saddam is out of luck on the "immune" angle.

#3 Ah, just set a date and time so that the entire population knows and can properly assemble, and push the old fart out the building door in just the underwear he was captured in. Let the true will of the 'demos' decide his fate. Wonder if the MSM would actually show a human body being rendered in lots of little pieces?

#4 Look at it this way, .com, all the money they spend on 'defending' Saddam (the best food and drink, the best hotels, etc), is money not being spent in IEDs.

#5 Damn. Give that man a cup of coffee and a bagel! He's a regular muzz Matlock solving cases on a speedboat racing along the Thames. I imagine phukwit counsel in London is well paid for his extreme mental gymnastics. Who says infantile nihilistic utterances have no value for an attorney billing by the hour.

#11 This jurisprudential giant must not have heard of the Nuremberg trials.

"Your Honor, at the time Herr Himmler was massacring Jews it was legal and therefore he gets to go home".

Of course that was international law, and the Iraqis are trying him first on their own charges. So who knows. But I wouldnt bet my life on it.
