Stalin was also secular, as were actually most mass-murdering dictators of the 20th Century. I don’t give a rip about Saddam’s or Aziz’s alleged religions. Saddam was a genocidal Arab Nazi, an enemy of the United States and humanity and a supporter of Arab supremacist and Islamist terrorists.
His regime was one of the most vile and aggressive on planet in the last decades.
Aziz deserves the rope just as much as Ribbentrop did for their “diplomacy”.
Aziz deserves a trial as there’s no definite proof that he was complicit — unlike Saddy who was guilty, without any doubt. All the Cardinal is saying is that Aziz should be tried in a court of law, instead of languishing in limbo
