Riverbend on the lynching.....

once again she expresses it exactly....hmmm.....wonder if that's because this bloody horror is going down in her country......anybody with room temp IQ should have seen how ridiculous a "trial" in an occupied country was.....followed oh so quickly by the lynching......man they sure don't want that "kicked to the curb" dictator talking!!! i bet the stories(his) of when he was our guy would make fascinating reading!!! of course i'm not making the case for saddam as "good guy". i just think real justice should be what we stand for. (ie; the Hague, Nuremburg)at the very least we should have accurate news reporting......
America should be sooo ashamed.

A Lynching...
It's official. Maliki and his people are psychopaths. This really is a new low. It's outrageous- an execution during Eid. Muslims all over the world (with the exception of Iran) are outraged. Eid is a time of peace, of putting aside quarrels and anger- at least for the duration of Eid.This does not bode well for the coming year. No one imagined the madmen would actually do it during a religious holiday. It is religiously unacceptable and before, it was constitutionally illegal. We thought we'd at least get a few days of peace and some time to enjoy the Eid holiday, which coincides with the New Year this year. We've spent the first two days of a holy holiday watching bits and pieces of a sordid lynching.
America the savior… After nearly four years and Bush's biggest achievement
in Iraq has been a lynching. Bravo Americans.

.......So, no, CNN, his last words were not "Muqtada Al Sadr" in a mocking
tone- just thought someone should clear that up. (Really people, six of you
contributed to that article!)

Shaking Hands: Iraqi President Saddam Hussein
greets Donald Rumsfeld, then special envoy of President Ronald Reagan, in Baghdad on December 20, 1983.


..............Soon thereafter, Donald Rumsfeld
(who had served in various positions in the Nixon and Ford administrations,
including as President Ford's defense secretary, and at this time headed the
multinational pharmaceutical company G.D. Searle & Co.) was dispatched to the Middle East as a presidential envoy. His December 1983 tour of regional capitals included Baghdad, where he was to establish "direct contact between an envoy of President Reagan and President Saddam Hussein," while emphasizing "his close relationship" with the president. Rumsfeld met with Saddam, and the two discussed regional issues of mutual interest, shared enmity toward Iran and Syria, and the U.S.'s efforts to find alternative routes to transport Iraq's oil; its facilities in the Persian Gulf had been shut down by Iran, and Iran's ally, Syria, had cut off a pipeline that transported Iraqi oil through its territory. Rumsfeld made no reference to chemical weapons, according to detailed notes on the meeting.
