  • Saddam is a POW

    Early tonigh CNN reported that Saddam is now legal P.O.W. So what does that mean for a speedy trial and Hanging?

    Does this mean the USA will pursue Saddam's case with dignity? (A trial in a court, a lawyer, etc.)

        not as long as he doesn't get an armani suit and a hair cut

        I really hope he'll get a good trial, just to avoid future myths of victors' justice

          All war crimes tribunals are exercises in that.

                Death cannot conceivably be considered a valid penalty for anything.

                Life imprisonment in a Belgian or Swiss prison.

                  Sure. Murder 300,000 people and bankrupt a nation...get a room at the Belgium Hilton.

                  Some people have no right to existence.

                    Neither does a civilised world to kill one.

                    Anyway, what would killing him solve?
                    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                          He must have really been tighlipped- otherwise they would still have kept him in legal limbo so the boys at the CIA could go after him.

                            I really don't like Saddam. That lets me out of jury duty on this one.

                              Lancer..interesting point you bring up..

                              For real, imagine being asked if you know anything about the case or have you any predisposed feeling on his status of guilt or guilt..er..ugh..I mean not being innocent..heck.. even I cant say he is innocent..

                              but I have never seen what he did and only from what I have heard and read..
