Going by your logic, Saddam shouldnt be tried for crimes against Kurds because they happened long time back !
"By your logic, Saddam shouldn't be tried for crimes against the Kurds because they happened a long time back."
That is utter krap. I have no problem with a trial for crimes from a long time ago. My problem was with the questionable evidence and the inability of the jurors to see the witnesses against Killen. He had a constitutional right as an American citizen to SEE his accusers in any trial. This was violated.
No trial is needed in Saddam's case. His guilt is completely obvious. And he is a mortal enemy of the U.S., not a U.S. citizen with rights.
