| #8 Glenmore, I do not believe there is any Iraqi law regarding age-limits for capital sentences. I oughta know, as I was extremely familiar with the trials and the whole situation during my time there, but I can't recall with precision. There were also questions a while back about international age-limits on death sentences, but that of course is irrelevant in that the procedural aspects of the IHT and most of its sentencing are governed by Iraqi law, which includes the death sentence. This episode recalls the many instances of Sunni communities demanding that American soldiers accompany Iraqi units into their areas, or resolve disputes with the government as a sort of external arbitrator. The hated occupiers - but please please please don't leave, and don't let our countryment near us without some of your soldiers present. Sweet. |

| #6 Dear Ramsey - No one named 'President Saddam Hussein' is in our custody in Iraq. We do have some dweeb named just plain Saddam Hussein al-Tikrit, and a jury of his peers has found him Unbelievably Guilty in a trial that was pretty damned fair for that part of the world. What they do to him is up to them. But I'll tell ya what - since you're so sure this guy really is innocent, why don't you stand up on a soapbox in Baghdad or Kurdistan and make your case? Bite me, Traitor Boy. Mike |

| #4 If I understand correctly, Saddam has to be executed by April 28 or not at all, as Iraqi law prohibits execution of those over 70. They may have to make a choice of execute or keep trying him for all the different crimes. How will the victim groups whose cases have not reached trial yet feel? |

| #3 This idiot has to be working for our side. There is NO WAY someone that STUPID could graduate college! If Saddam picked him to be his legal rep Saddam deserves what he gets! I'm surprised he did'nt say the sky was falling! |
