I don't see the need to "try" saddam at all.The U.S. turned saddam into this hitler type war criminal only because it failed to find any wmds',which was its' original battlecry when bush originally started selling this war.So,now the attitude is like,o.k. we got saddam,the wicked tyrant/mass murderer/gasser of his own people/really,really evil guy and we,the glorious citizens of the united states of america are gonna "bring him to justice".Since when did the world give the u.s. the authority to overthrow the government of sovereign nations,hunt down its' officials,and then drag them into some court to stand trial like common criminals?I do not want to give the impression I think saddam is a great guy but can someone please name me the leader of a nation on this earth who doesn't have innocent blood on his hands.If the u.s. has embarked on some crusade to rid the world of governments that do bad things and cause its' people to suffer,then that is truly a noble and lofty goal,and I would be behind such actions 100%.Next up would be most of the governments of latin america,where many people live in abject poverty due to widespread governmental corruption.And of course Africa and its' many countries that are seemingly in a constant state of suffering and war.Yes,the world will be a truly utopian wonderland after we bring all these nasty governments to justice.Yup,I'll just go over here and hold my breath.
