if Saddam is found not guilty?

Thats a good law question. I suppose if he were found innocent he may be able to seek justice for an invasion.

You know he will be convicted, but I hope someone answers your hypothetical with a real answer and not the typical "he'll never get off."

Saddam Hussein eventually will be found guilty of SOMEthing even while his lawyers are being assassinated and the trial judges replaced! However, his guilt will have absolutely NOTHING to do with the World Trade Center and Pentagon attacks and plane hijackings of September 11, 2001.

George W. Bush has a heckuva lot to answer for but I seriously doubt he'll be called to do it in his lifetime! Hopefully, history will treat him as the liar and patsy he is.

Tony Blair, at least, has admitted acting on misinformation and "apologised"; he still supports the "war on terrorism" and is the consumate politician albeit a thousand times more articulate than President Bush. (I'm not a member of the Labour Party, by the way!). He is about to step down from the Prime Minister position and party leadership....and may pull a "Bill Clinton", racking up money on the lecture circuit.

Neither will end up in court over Iraq.

For the rest, as "they" say "only time will tell..."

Even if Saddam were given a fair trial, he'd be found guilty. The evidence is overwhelming. But fear not, despite the judge who recently seemed to defer to Saddam, I'm pretty confident that the Iraqi people are out for Saddam's blood.

Bush and Blair have a UN resolution they can cite as their justification for war. Its not an explicit endorsment for the invasion, but enough to cover their butts.

They fired the judge BECAUSE he said some good things about Saddam. I don't think he should have said ANYTHING good OR bad, because a judge is SUPPOSED to be impartial. But that this was done with such dispatch says that Saddam has about as much chance as an ice cube in hell. Dumbya feels it is SO important for him to have immunity from war crimes that his obedient Senate is writing a "get out of jail free" bill for him, with his fav torture provisions, as we now speak... er type.

You got to be kidding. Right?

First of all the idiot Saddam Has been in violation of U.N. resolutions since they were imposed in 93.

These violations alone warrant the repercussions Saddam suffered.

When you agree to open door inspection you don't slam the door in inspectors faces for any reason.

Saddam was defiant and paid the price. Should have paid the price a lot sooner.

You got to be a youngster!

I do think he would be found guilty... but I still hope that Bush and Blair go to court for crimes of war....

He becomes a shoo-in candidate for winning the next democratic election held in Iraq. His campaign slogan will be "Bring back the good old days."

No. The judge will go to court for probably taking a bribe.

I dont know that would be prety interestsing. Sadaam is in a lot of troulbe he is bound to get foudn guilty by at least one country

i doubt he will be found not guilty. it would be nuts tho. and no bush and blair wont go to court. they are above the law. didnt you know that?
