White House is lying, Saddam tells court

BAGHDAD, Dec 22 (Reuters) - Saddam Hussein accused the White House on Thursday of lying by saying he had chemical weapons before the U.S.-led invasion on 2003.

"The White House are liars. They said Iraq had chemical weapons," the former Iraqi president told his trial. "They lied again when they said that what Saddam said was wrong."

The latter accusation may have been a response to a White House denial of a claim that Saddam made on Wednesday, when he said he had been tortured in U.S. custody.

CNN has this live right now. I didn't see a live thread when I did a search.

All I can think of when Hussein starts yelling is Southpark's rendition of Hussein... "Relax, guys!"

Al Tikriti is now spewing a bunch of nonsense. He said something like, This court will cause more blood.
