Good thing he didn't have OJ's lawyers.

Very confusing --- someone just said he has months or years left to live before he's executed.

I love Iraqi justice - the death penalty should be swift. I'd like to see a 30 day rule here too.

After the sentencing there is an immediate appeal, I don't know how long that takes. After all the appeal is exhausted, THEN the sentence has to be carried out within 30 days.

Ramses Clark is at idiot. Weren't the Nuremburg trials going on while we were still at war with Japan? Didn't we have a trial, conviction, and execution of Nazi sabatogers.
And what's this fuel violence crap. They're going to set off bombs anyway? Is releasing Saddam going to end violence?

I'm glad that they are going to die for their crimes, but woe to them when they stand before the TRUE GOD and HE judges them.
