Contrast our American troops, who pulled Saddam from the spider hole and brought him in for trial, with these rebels, who apparently shot Khadaffy while he was lying in the hole.

And WE are the one portrayed as the human rights abusers.

Maybe it wasn’t rebel forces that killed him. His convoy was hit by NATO jets. My guess is they were acting on intel. Then there would be some sort of NATO ground presence available to check the result of the airstrike and deal with the aftermath, say the SAS or some French or Itie equivelent. They find Qadaffyi and dispatch him. Didn’t Hillary say in Tripoli three days ago that he was going to be KILLED?

The soldiers should have killed Saddam outright. He was armed. But there is a law that rulers are not killed by soldiers.

I’m sure they’re going to face all kinds of formal complaints from the U.N. And monkeys will fly out of my butt.
