#1 I'm sure we can find a Spanish or Belgie judge to hold the trial.

#3 I figure that just about any tack looks good - compared to actually defending Saddam.

#4 Your humble commenter is deeply involved in the trial, and can only add my chuckles to this particular matter. If things go well, we'll be treated to the spectacle not only of heads such as those mentioned in the article above exploding, but the slow, systematic humiliation of the arrogant, anti-US international "human rights" groups as they are forced to watch Iraqis deliver better, swifter justice than the mostly farcical international tribunals have been able to do.

#5 V-man! Long time, no hear. Bizzy, bizzy, huh? Lol - good on ya - I look forward to some 'splodin' HR weeners, er, their heads, I mean, lol.

If you get a chance, one question:

Have they decided if they're gonna withhold sentence from this first trial, which should be his head in a noose - hanging is the method, IIUC - and try all of the charges stacked up in the queue, first? Lotsa blather about that, but I've heard nothing definitive.

Good to hear from you - obviously you're okay. Stay that way!

#6 Good to hear from Verlaine. And a quick question. Is the defense team still gonna ask for US protection? If they are, this could be the wrong way to go about getting it.

#9 Saddam has been charged in a crime that occurred before George Bush was even Governor of Texas, I believe. So it is hard to see how his guilt or innocence on that particular charge has anything to do with GW.

#10 I'll make you a deal. We will put Bush on trial after we try Koffi and nuke Iran. Deal?
