#9 I'd love to see the beast publically tried on TV, but I also wonder what other possible outcomes there could be if he doesn't get to trial--
1.) Some Ba'athists who escaped detection during the police screening process will (try to) help him escape.
2.) Similarly some Ba'athists may smuggle in cyanide or some such to save him the humiliation of a trial (a la Goering).
3.) On a different tack, his non-Ba'athist Iraqi custodians will beat the life out of him.
4.) Similarly, it will be revealed he was abused and tortured in Iraqi custody and the integrity and fairness of the trial and the court will taint all the proceedings.

I do hope the bastard is tried effectively and correctly and executed, in any case!

#11 One of my buddies observed that we should keep it simple, bring him out to an airfield and let his people string him up on the tarmac straight away. Of course he made that remark five years ago so he was a little ahead of the curve. Or maybe he was just in on the neo-con conspiracy.

#12 Actually, I think we should accede to the demands of the anti-war movement and release him unconditionally----on the streets of Baghdad.
