Good for the Iraqi people. Good for the Kurds. Good for the Shia's. Good for the Marsh Arabs. Good for the Kuwaiti's. Good for the families of those who have had relatives killed and imprisoned.
The world had years to develop a Hague tribunal on the genocide of Saddam, but did nothing. I hope the Iraqi people put him on trial, slowly and carefully revealing the years of systematic genocide that Saddam committed. Here is a man that murdered as many as a million Muslims, and yet Guppies here are far more concerned about how this event will effect the US.
It should not be about the US whatsover. It should be about how Muslims focus their attention on Muslim-on-Muslim violence that claims far more lives than any Gulf War or conflict with the West. Perhaps with the war crimes trial, people will realize the MAGNITUDE of Saddam' abuse of his own people.
Good job troops for capturing Saddam alive and allowing a trial by the Iraqi people. I hope the UN provides experts to the Iraqi people to expedite and professionalize these trials.

I don't understand this. World did nothing. UN did nothing. The Muslim countries did nothing. The US did something about it. At great expense, money and lives. How is it not about US? It is about Iraq and it is about the US. It has nothing to do with Muslims.
:rotato: i’m so glad for the Iraqis. They should be public hanging now, exactly where his statue was put up. I heard he’s already been taken out of Iraq. Perhaps he’s heading to Guantanimo bay.
ps> Is it me, or does he have an uncanny resemblence to Gandalf in LOTR?
"World did nothing. UN did nothing. The Muslim countries did nothing. "
Exactly my point. When Muslim countries actually have the ethics to denounce a bad Muslim leader, then they will be on their way to a better life for Muslims. By all counts Saddam murdered between 300k and one million fellow Muslims. No one ever mentions these losses, but AlJazeera will run reports on civilian casualties caused by the US, 24/7.
Something is woefully out of proportion. The casualties caused by the US in liberating Iraq are the equivalent of an average MONTH under Saddam.
This is the best possiblle outcome for the US. The War Crimes trials can be used to educate the world on the crimes of Saddam and the MAGNITUDE of the horrors can be seen.

Why don't you ask the entire Waziri people, they know where Bin Laden is, so do Pakistan and so do the US.
Stop nagging, thats not why they waged the war, the war was about WMDs, where are they? As long as they dont have them it was an illegal war no matter what.

There needs to be universal accountability to include all officials past and present who are linked to the war crimes in Iraq including officials within the US administration.. the names Rumsfeld and Bush come to mind!

1- $750,000
2- Two Ak47
3- One Pistal
