Shoes and trousers lie in a mass grave site being excavated in Hatra, northern Iraq, Tuesday, Oct 12, 2004. Europeans skilled at excavating mass graves are reluctant to join the search for victims of Saddam Hussein's regime because the former dictator could face the death penaltyfor crimes committed during his rule, according to Greg Kehoe, an American human rights lawyer who is working with the Iraqi Special Tribunal."(AP Photo/Thannasis Cambanis, Pool)

Yet they won't help cause Saddam may face the death penalty...unbelievable.
I'm speechless.
There is little hope for the West.
The Europeans deserve to be ruled by the Islamics.
I absolutely HATE Europe.
I pretty much agree with you. This is unthinkable. These people were killed during Saddam's rule. He's guilty and there are plenty of wittnesses. Nothing is going to change that!
Oh my word! That saddens me to no end.
I agree, there truly is little hope for the West. This is why I'm proud that America is perceived as unilaterally minded. If these are our allies, who needs enemies? I don't want America to be in any sort of alliance with these morally bankrupt fools.
No! As ALWAYS, we will defend their sorry butts because we want them as a buffer to this sort of thing. If Europe falls to Islam, we're in for a very messy bowl of sh*t.
Funny...they didn't mind supporting Saddam when he enforced the death penalty. Typical...European = liberal = hypocrite
Please exclude Poland, Italy, Denmark and other coalition members from that remark.
It would have been better to say:
I HATE France, Germany, Belgium, etc.
But I got your point and agree with it.
Your clarity is appreciated. I now have a seething anger at Saddam's European enablers!
Saddam is to under go hernia surgery, he may not survie it.
I think people on FR know of which Europe I speak of...and this is what John Kerry and Democrats wish were our allies over there?
God,I wish I ran the media campaign for Bush.
For centuries, the most best, brightest, and boldest of Europe's children moved to North America. The bravest of those left were killed in the World Wars. The gene pool remaining lacks courage and vision. It is sad to watch the decline but, to be honest, they don't seem to mind.
He already had it 2 weeks ago.
"Europeans skilled at excavating mass graves are reluctant to join the search for victims of Saddam Hussein's regime because the former dictator could face the death penalty"
What a bunch of hypocrites! They allowed Saddam Hussein to kill, maim, torture, and gas people; but now when they have to face what their actions have caused, they use the excuse they don't want to help due to the death penalty. What can one expect from people who obviously have no soul. I hope that we never again risk another soldiers life bailing them out of trouble.
When your society is permeated with that kind of pusillanimity in the face of evil, there's no hope for it. None at all. Most of Western Europe will probably be Moslem before too long, and one has to wonder whether that will be an improvement.
Unbelievable. It won't change Saddam's fate in the least. He will not be above room temperature for much longer.
