If any ever requires a completely legitimate trial before being
hanged,
it is Saddam Hussein. Yet Saddam wasn't represented by his lawyers at
the arraignment this morning. He was alone, facing the judge.
We can't seem to do anything right in Iraq, and yes, I know, the
Iraqis
are now running things over there, even though they are not.
Saddam should have had his lawyers present. Period. If we are going
to
try to convince the Moslem world and the rest of the world that we
really believe in what we preach, and these trials are legitimate and
"fair," then we have to abide by what we preach. It doesn't matter
what
Saddam "deserves," in terms of the outcome. Process matters.
I loved the part where the judge wanted Saddam to sign papers and
told
him he didn't need his lawyer present to do it. Saddam refused, as he
should have. You can't trust "the system" anywhere, even if you are a
monster like Saddam Hussein.
Iraqi Court. Iraqi Judge. Iraqi legal system. Understand now?
I figured you would find it in yourself to defend the guy.
I'm not defending Saddam, you ignorant ass. I'm defending the concept of
a trial through a legal process that will do us some good around the
world.
Do you work extra hard at being stupid?
As for the Iraqi court, judge, legal system...that's convenient, eh? But
not particularly convincing. Especially when the US military did not
allow independent news microphones in the room. Is the entire trial to
be censored by the US, directly or indirectly?
,.You haven't a clue as to how Iraq has been restructured, at least
temporarily, by the United States.
Harry, those narrow minded right wingers can't think like that. You
are either with everything and anything that comes out of BushCo, or
you're a traitor.
Asskisser you and Harry are the biggest TRAITORS in this Group. You can't
see but the **** you want to see. Keep on Bashing Bush and Playing right in
the hands of Harry's Buddies. You know the ass wipes that are killing our
boys in Iraq. You (Asskisser) and Harry are the worst Asshole I have ever
come across. Why don't move to Iraq and start shooting at our troops over
there. At least they will have a chance to see where the **** is coming
from. If you are Americans why don't you try to help instead of Bashing
President all the time.
