From the other side of the world

I can't believe you actually
gave Hussein a trial!
I believe that it was Iraq that gave him a trial, not the US.

They would really like Iraq to stand on its own two feet. Of
course, they would like them to be democratic, secular feet,
with a few military bases in the country, too. ;-)

Had not the U.S. forced the Iraqis to put Saddam on trial before
the entire world, they would have meted out the traditional
punishment for despots like him - stoning to death. As to the last
paragraph, President Bush probably has been over zealous in
promoting these ideals, but then, we all know this is about oil,
right?
