The Iraqis around us are happy, but seem to be a little stunned. Perhaps it needs to sink in. Americans are celebrating with high fives and whoops. (That's why I was away from the keyboard for a bit.)
They have to carry this out within 30 days.
Hang him from the crossed swords! (Right around the corner from me.)
Saw the clip on al Jazeera of Ramsay Clark being kicked out of the courtroom. It was priceless!!
Did they show this live in Iraq?
We saw the kick-out over here, but with correspondents talking over it on all the news channels. Did you hear any portion of what Clark said? If so.... what?
What about the appeal?
Wait...I thought it was 30 days after the end of the "appeals" process...which I imagine is much swifter and completely unlike the 30 YEAR American version.
I hope they do it ... in 30 days. Think it'll really happen?
SO .. it'll be a Merry ThugMas! Just now, some quick gunfire in the streets on CNN.
