Saddam Hussein and the seven co-defendants in his trial are planning a hunger strike, the former Iraqi president's defence team said, citing sources inside the detention centre where they are being held.
"Saddam and his followers will start a hunger strike from tomorrow, protesting the illegitimate procedures and bad treatment by the court," Khamis al-Aubeidi, a leading member of Saddam's defence team, told Reuters.
Oh let's hope he does. I'm going to enjoy the reaction of the Left and the Arab governments. Oh the horror, poor Sammy just becoming a ghost of himself (not yet, that honor belongs to us), look how thin he is, how brave, yadda-yadda-yadda.
Think a single commentator will remember the million people Sammy killed? The second million killed in two stupid wars? The shredding machine? The evil spawn son Uday who raped hundreds of Iraqi women?
Of course not. It'll all be our fault, but that's okay -- I'm going to enjoy watching how these people expose themselves. |
