Execute him and get it over with before the do gooders find a reason to make him out to be the victim and set him free.

Point of order Bill, but do you
really believe that the 'do gooders' would ever be able to make Saddam Hussein out to be a victim?
Is there anybody who doesn't know who he is and what he's responsible for? As Coggy said earlier, this is completely out of our hands so it's somewhat academic what any of us actually say but, if a court decided that he was to be imprisoned, it would be very unlikely that he had a minimum term set - if these crimes potentially have the death penalty as a sentence, I believe that it is more likely that the sentence would be commuted to life (and it would mean life).
As for him not thinking of his victims human rights, surely, by ignoring his, the court would be sinking to his level? By respecting his rights, hopefully a fair trial will take place, and he will be sentenced accordingly.
