You lay claim that they died for a 30 second clip, if you cannot see how that belittles and trivialises their loss then there is no hope for you. To make matters worse you bring in the pain their families have suffered, making out their pain was over a trivial matter as well.

You would have the coalition forces remove Saddam, then just walk away?

I have not needed to twist anything, suggesting the deaths of men and women, and the pain felt by their loved ones was simply to get a 30 second clip of saddam swinging from a rope is what you said, and I am truly disgusted by your attitude towards their loss.

As I said, the article which points out that it was introduced under the Iraqi law of the time, and extended under Iraqi law, and currently active under Iraqi law, therefore anyone processed via the order is done so under Iraqi law.

Please do grow up, perhaps then you will stop trivialising the deaths of anyone, and become man enough to apologise.
