There is no evidence that Rommel was an active participant in the conspiracy to assassinate Hitler. Some of the captured conspirators claimed he would be offered the job of head of state following Hitler's removal. Thus Rommel's loyalty to Hitler was questioned. Rommel was seriously wounded on July 17, 1944, and he was in a hospital when the assassination attempt was made on July 20, 1944.

asked if he could ask some questions

? 1: Am I still President for Life

? 2: Why wasn't I read my Miranda rights?

? 3: Why can't I call Chiraq?

I stand corrected. I thought for sure Rommel was in on it.

Himmler, who shot himself (after poisoning his 6 young children)

Maybe Goebbels, the guy from Berlin. He would have been Reichsfuerer if Hitler hadn't come along. Himmler was assasinated by partisans.

No, that was Heydrich. Killed by British trained Czechs. In reprisal, the Nazis killed all the men of Lidice.

Right, Heydrich was probably the worst of the bunch, and that's going some.

Don't recall that scene but I expect I could readily accept such a treatment.

Ali's trial should be quick - about 10 minutes to review the photos of the dead - followed by his hanging. I think the new government needs to set the tone early, to get a quick shot of public enthusiam for the interim government.

It was the head rolling down the stairs scene.
And yes, I'd appreciate Sadman getting that kind of treatment as well.

If so, my guess is he'll die of natural causes before justice can be administered.

Maybe so, but in my opinion it doesn't matter whether he up and dies or is executed, because the important thing is that there will be a trial, and hopefully it will get the kind of coverage that the Scot Peterson trial is gettiing. There will be nothing better for America than to see the Trial of the (21st) Century on the cable news channels. I think it would get the other side of the whole Iraq war issue that we don't see at all right now. When people see the kind of ruler he was, opinions will change. Most opinions are, I believe, emotional responses, and not always based in logic.

"They should move him to some place like Oregon."

Yeah, sure!

In good ol' liberal Oregon, he would get the sentence of having the jury wring their hands furiously at him for up to 15 minutes before they turned him loose!

Rommel was praised by no lower statesman than Churchill, as well as by many other military and political men of that time.

There is no doubt in my mind that he would have been found to have acted honorably in command were he to have been put on trial after the war.

Sounds too much like Home Depot.

And acts too much like Home Depot...no one can screw up a large tile order like them...dealing with their "Special Services" Department is sheer torture!!!!

I don't think Iraq has juries.
The system is more European - a panel of judges I think.
