BWHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

The dude told them to go to hell! He does have cajones the size of bowling balls!

I have been following these antics and find them quite amusing. I will not be surprised at anything tried by Saddam as he has nothing to loose. All attempts will be made to paint the trial as a sham as it seems the court is willing to bend over backwards to avoid that appearance.

Has anyone noticed the nature of the evidence the prosecution is reported as bringing forward? Videos of a rambling deathbed statement, and most testimony appears to be made by people hiding behind curtains.

What I find most intriguing about the testimony given is that in all reports I have read, there is no claim of Saddam's involvement in the reported abuses of power, rather people in his government are doing the act.

Anyone who finds himself in a position of government over men, no matter what structure of government he advertises, by assuming the authority for himself and his agents to speak and act for as well as initiate force against his fellow man, he should suffer the the same consequence of those against whom force or fraud was initiated by his agents.

It matters not whether the principal ordered, authorized, or had any knowledge of the acts of his agents. There is no excuse for lack of knowledge in government as someone not in control of his agents is unfit for the office. Further, the the principle must stand accountable for the actions of the agent.

So yes, if there is valid evidence that shows the agents of Saddam were involved in an ongoing abuse of power and he did not act to stop them, even if such an act were political and/or literal suicide, he and his agents should be rode out at dawn and well... paint your own picture based on your beliefs regarding grace and retribution and taking out the trash.

Then lets march on DC and prove we are not a bunch of hypocrites and clean up house there for all the lies, scandals, torture, killings, and general abuse of power filtering its way through the world from the US principals.

I used to be a federal officer. Before you guys get to picking on Saddam, consider this (IF,let me repeat, IF, thats the real Saddam they have in court), back around 1993 we had a guy in max protection at a federal prison who was the head of a Italian bank in the United States. I asked him WHY we were protecting him and his reply was " you are protecting me from the government." He said that (and this was during Bush's FATHER'S PRESIDENCY), that BEFORE the Gulf War, the Bush administration authorized him to give Saddam a 5 billion dollar loan to build up Iraq's military. This was done so that Iraq would have the ability to invade kuwait, in return, the Bush administration tricked Saddam and used that as pretext to attack Iraq. When congress found out about the money coming thru the bush administration, the bank president was told to lie about Bush's knowledge, take the fall (like oliver north), and he wouldnt go to jail. If he refused, well, they would get him, thus, he was in isolation waiting trail. Stop believing the mass deception of the media. Saddam and ben laden always been cia stooges, like noreiga in panama. noriega started bucking and froze illegal assets he was protecting , thus, they went and got him. saddam refused to go into MORE debt with the united states corporations, thus they went and just took the oil instead of tricking him out of it with debt.

I agree it's all a government 3 ring circus. Sadam is an agent Bin Laden is an agent, hell the cia helped fund and organize Al Quadia when the Russians invaded Afganastan.

Good point, and precisely well said.

Yes, the 911 planes were a smoke screen for the preplanted bombs and the whole war on terror is a scam. First we have a war on poverty, then drugs, now terror. Can you see the incrementalism? We are being played bigtime by the luciferians on their diasterous attempt to destroy the Creator. They will fail! There is no reason for their deceptions to work on us any more. We are witnesses to the battle of Good v. evil and we must learn to put on the Armor of the Holy Spirit for protection from the deceptions of the luciferians.

Was Hussein set-up from the start? I think it is a luciferian technique(not enough royal blood)that is well practiced throughout history. Trotsky, JFK, RFK, Nixon, Lady Diana, Hitler, Stalin, and on and on and on. I call it "create a boogie man" like Goldstein of Orwell's 1984.

Saddam is no more or less guilty than Ted Kennedy.
