after seeing those links to the mass graves and the gassing of the Kurds my questions are: why didn't remove that spawn of satan sooner? why did we let Saddam get away with it for so long?

God Bless President Bush!! He truly is a Warrior of God!

Yep, I think your right. He will probably boycott his trial again and again and again.

The current judge has said he'll try him in absentia if he has to. They're bringing these charges just in case the Judail charges don't stick. They've already got plenty of evidence on Judail, though.

The current judge is a no-nonsense guy who isn't intimidated by Saddam like the last one was.

We've just got to be patient. I believe Saddam will swing from the end of a rope.

I hope so. We just have to stay tuned and keep our fingers crossed that all goes well.

Because the UN is gutless and we were preoccupied with the Cold War what what the Soviets might do. And then Clinton sat with his pants around his ankles while enemies gathered.

Kill him on Al-Jezeera TV then move on. Send a "special" broadcast to Tehran so they can take a hint.

I think you are right on this. These new charges are more about hedging bets than anything.

"If you allow someone like Saddam Hussein to get nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles, chemical weapons, biological weapons, how many people is he going to kill with such weapons?

He's already demonstrated a willingness to use these weapons.

He poison-gassed his own people.

He used poison gas and other weapons of mass destruction against his neighbors.

This man has no compunction about killing lots and lots of people...."
