Following sentance of death, Saddam Asks Iraqi's to band together and forgive each other.

By nolies32fouettes - Posted on November 7th, 2006

Saddam Hussein knows somethigns wronge in his country, and has asked his people to come together two days after recieving a death sentance from them.

So why wont the Republicans admit anythings wrong in Iraq?

Saddam, speaking to the court in the afternoon session, cited references to the Prophet Muhammad and Jesus who had asked for forgiveness for those who opposed them.

"I call on all Iraqis, Arabs and Kurds, to forgive, reconcile and shake hands," Saddam said after respectfully challenging one witness' testimony.

My view of the WHOLE trial at this point is best summed by Riverbend.

When All Else Fails...

… Execute the dictator. It’s that simple. When American troops are being killed by the dozen, when the country you are occupying is threatening to break up into smaller countries, when you have militias and death squads roaming the streets and you’ve put a group of Mullahs in power- execute the dictator.

Everyone expected this verdict from the very first day of the trial. There was a brief interlude when, with the first judge, it was thought that it might actually be a coherent trial where Iraqis could hear explanations and see what happened. That was soon over with the prosecution’s first false witness. Events that followed were so ridiculous; it’s difficult to believe them even now.

The sound would suddenly disappear when the defense or one of the defendants got up to speak. We would hear the witnesses but no one could see them- hidden behind a curtain, their voices were changed. People who were supposed to have been dead in the Dujail incident were found to be very alive.

Judge after judge was brought in because the ones in court were seen as too fair. They didn’t instantly condemn the defendants (even if only for the sake of the media). The piece de resistance was the final judge they brought in. His reputation vies only that of Chalabi- a well-known thief and murderer who ran away to Iran to escape not political condemnation, but his father’s wrath after he stole from the restaurant his father ran.

So we all knew the outcome upfront (Maliki was on television 24 hours before the verdict telling people not to ‘rejoice too much’). I think what surprises me right now is the utter stupidity of the current Iraqi government. The timing is ridiculous- immediately before the congressional elections? How very convenient for Bush. Iraq, today, is at its very worst since the invasion and the beginning occupation. April 2003 is looking like a honeymoon month today. Is it really the time to execute Saddam?

I’m more than a little worried. This is Bush’s final card. The elections came and went and a group of extremists and thieves were put into power (no, no- I meant in Baghdad, not Washington). The constitution which seems to have drowned in the river of Iraqi blood since its elections has been forgotten. It is only dug up when one of the Puppets wants to break apart the country. Reconstruction is an aspiration from another lifetime: I swear we no longer want buildings and bridges, security and an undivided Iraq are more than enough. Things must be deteriorating beyond imagination if Bush needs to use the ‘Execute the Dictator’ card.
Interesting life-motto. When all else fails, execute the dictator! Did ANY of us expect any different for the trial? But her assessment of Iraq CERTAINLY needs to be remembered today at the polls. Our soldiers are DYING, so that these Republicans can be a"wartime" government, and can reward their cronies. I only have a few minutes before work, so i have to go. Please keep this in mind as you hopefully go to the polls today. This is our last chance to make the American government our OWN again.

I wonder how they find people to do this and are willing to go to jail. Of course you can't take back elections due to illegal activites, however you can make sure they are held accountable and that you make the punishment serious enough that others will not do it.

I hope they nail these people to the wall--so to speak.

Huge turnout. Huge turnout in CT. Looks good for Lamont. Exit polls (*such as they are) indicate the corruption and other issues are making this appear like Dems are winning.

Malfunctioning machines everywhere. Mean Jean schmidt's ballot wouldn't be taken by the machine. (They'll count it 80 times)
