Guest alex Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 It's a strange one. What jurisdiction does the court have, who will pick the judges etc.? Obviously he is an evil person who deserves to die but I can just see it being a very long-winded show trial. That should keep the lawyers happy like.

BlueStar 0 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 They should put him on trail for the massacre of the Kurds with chemical weapons, but they wouldn't dare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 He is being tried for the crime that will be the simplest to get a conviction for, not necessarily the most serious one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W 0 Posted October 19, 2005 Author Share Posted October 19, 2005 when you think that ordering the killing of 143 people is " not necessarily the most serious one" you get some idea of what sort of person he was....... sorry is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStar 0 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 And it's just coincidence that they picked one which the west didn't have a hand in. If the gassing of the Kurds would be harder to prove, why did they go on about it so much before the invasion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt 0 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I cannot see him escaping death unless there is some kind of technicality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Would that not open up the risk of repercussions, making a martyr of him sort of thing? More likely he'll be locked up and they'll throw the key away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
