Ramsey Clark, a former US attorney general who is one of Saddam Hussein's lawyers, said that any death sentence against the former Iraqi president would increase violence in the strife-torn country.

Clark is playing at "emotional blackmail" games. He is unable to defend Saddam, the way good lawyers do. Smacks of desperation. And what's he doing chatting around with "the people" to get at this data? Whose his informant. Get Ramsey Clarke on the stand.

If that catastrophic violence includes Ramsey Clark keeling over, I think the world would be better off.

"Ramsey Clark is a complete as8hole"

I respectfully take issue with you. He is a complete traitor who just appends to be what you suggested.
