BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) -- A Kurdish villager testified Tuesday that he fled an attack by Saddam Hussein's forces 18 years ago, leaving behind his mother and two sisters. Years later, their identity cards were discovered in a mass grave, he said.
"Congratulations! you are in a cage, Saddam," witness Ghafour Hassan Abdullah said as he stared at the ousted president. Hussein later lashed out at "agents of Iran and Zionism" in the courtroom and vowed to "crush your heads."
Abdullah, 29, gave the chilling account during the trial of Hussein and six others for their roles in Operation Anfal, the 1987-88 campaign to suppress a Kurdish revolt in northern Iraq during the final stages of the war with Iran.
Hussein has insisted that the crackdown was directed against Kurdish guerrillas who were allied with Iran in the 1980-88 war.
If convicted, Hussein and the other defendants could face death by hanging.

Too good for him.
He will crush your infidel head for that!
LOL I was seeing Saddam doing a Mark McKinney impression with a wicked grin! Gigglesnort!
"If convicted, Hussein and the other defendants could face death by hanging."
Saddam Hussein should be hung in a very public place in Baghdad, and left hanging on display for a week or so. Perhaps some vultures could be arranged to visit him.
Death by hanging would also be an appropriate punishment for the traitors in the Democrat Party.
Sadam: To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women! ...
Why is Saddam still alive?
Man, talk about the political equivalent of going both ways. Can a country be bi-sexual? Reminds of the classic quote from Johnny Dangerously:
Ma Kelly: You've gotten to be like a daughter to me and I wanna share somethin' with ya.
Lil: Awww, what's that Mom Kelley?
Ma Kelly: I go both ways.
Well, if it gives the witnesses a chance to mock him, I'm all for it. Imagine how gratifying it was for the man that lost his family to tell him that he was now in a cage.
He was having a Genesis Ch. 3 moment.
And I will put enmity between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and hers;
he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.
Gen 3:15 KJV
Actually, it can take quite awhile and make a great spectacle if we allow the Iraqis to do it-- short drop, 2 inches of slack and panties on his head rather than a hood.Senator Rockefeller is a horse's rear end.
I was just thinking about that one!
Was it Kids In The Hall? Capitol Steps? Some group like that...

How do you like us now? Wait, don't answer that, or we'll have to ask 'ol Moe to take his time, and crank the screws down tighter.
I wish John Bolton would get a new barber. He looks too shaggy. He needs to kick up his image a few notches. And then there are those eyeglasses...too clunky. He is razor sharp mentally but his outward appearence sort of detracts from that.
