First off the Oil for Food program was run by the United Nations....
Second of all....
| quote: | United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan has praised the Oil-for-Food Programme for accomplishing one of the largest, most complex and unusual tasks ever entrusted to the Secretariat.
In a statement to the Security Council (20 November 2003), he noted that the Programme, which closed on 21 November was the only humanitarian programme ever to have been funded entirely from resources belonging to the nation it was designed to help. |

Third of all it wasn't even proved that there was a dircet link to Saddam taking from the funds. others around him maybe but not him directly. This thread is questioning the rightfullness of hanging someone in his postition. Your reason for wanting him dead is not even tied to him (or your money) individually.
Get it? |

Are you on crack?wtf did Iraq have to do with 911 FFS?
America has the right to defend its soil but not to invade countries that had nothing to do with 911.

STFU

Iraq did not deserve the American terrorists to invade them,and now Iraqis are kicking their yankee ass everyday!!!!

I think that instead of hanging him they should leave him in prison to die all alone and forgotten.
By killing him, he's gonna end up becoming more famous and almost somewhat of a martyr. |
That's my view on it. I don't agree with capital punishment...it's like giving them the easy way out. |

seeing how CNBC has been going on and on over the death sentence and that it will be by public hanging, i would not be surprised if they make a move to televise it live!

I guess they never invaded Kuwait either right? What I'm saying is that Dictatorial regimes that threaten and invade other countries should be dealt with before they get any more strange ideas. Probably America should have finished the job 10 years ago in the liberation of Kuwait. Governments like Iran's who threaten to wipe Isreal off the map and push it's citizens into the sea and deny the holocast are serious threats to peace in this world. This sort of behaviour should be nipped in the bud before it grows. History has taught us this the hard way with two world wars. |

9/11 was a catalyst. Bush was well aware that this action was going to happen, there is more proof to support that than refute it. Start at a level playing ground and go point by point, for and against bush and al queda being the actors behind the attacks, Bush will ALWAYS come out as the more guilty party.
Cowardly. Garbage. I am neither american nor middle eastern. I see cowardice of the worst kind in the americans, and foolish cowardice no less, they are supposedly a "super power" a might they choose to flex upon already crumbled buildings, against a powerless loudmouth ex leader while they train fleet of tired, hungry pennyless youths who want only to have some access to normalcy; when in reality iraqi squadrons are troops groups fit for protecting a museum. The blinddumb leading the hungrycolonised.
Other than planes in both Pearl Harbour and 9/11 there is no signifigant similarity. PH was war, and 9/11 was not.
what about everything that has transpired from 9/11 till today tells you that at this point it is in your best interest to suuport or beleive bush or his family? WHAT? there is nothing, he is, like Chavez, Musolini, Amenijhad (SP) (i chose those names carefully) a despotic leader, yet because he is western you support his politics. Garbage, you wouldnt trust that man with a loaded gun, yet you trust his judgement and his agression. |

personally Im against this whole thing. Can you honestly tell me that if someone attempted a plot to kill the President of the US that those responsible wouldnt disapear? its pretty much policy in most places that assination attempts dont get rewarded with life... esspecially in the middle east. Sadams retaliations are rather typicaly of the geographic area.
The fact that his lawyer (a former US attonery general) got thrown out the court room is a good sign (among MANY others!) that this case was decided before it even bagan. When it started the US stated that it was having problems finding "unbiased" people for the court... take that however you want but this whole thing has been an organized sham to save the US some face for destroying a country. I also liked how this article claimed that this has brought Iraq to the "brink" of civil war... clearly they have not been to a civil war recently to compare it to a real one. If they had Im sure they would not try to claim Iraq as being merely "troubled".
Im not saying Sadam is a good man by any means Im simply stating that the facts of this case do not justify the treatment of Iraq or the treatment of Saddam. I see this as another sad day for international law. |
So you agree with genocide, illegitimate invasions of sovereign countries and outright despotism? Wow.
Let's all thank you for now being in charge of international law...:wtf:
Good riddance to bad garbage! |

where in my post did it say that?
All I was expressing was that this is a sham court system set up by the US. Saddam, while not a good man by any means, is not the craziest leader on earth and he may not deserve to be hung. Saddam never started a genocide (a genocide is the deliberate attempt to erradicate a specific culture or race) and speaking of invading foreign soverign countries... what about the dozens of other countries (including the US currently) who have done this? Does that mean I support a court system to try and hang George W?
I'm arguing for some fairness in assesing international political actions which could have dire consquences for thousands of humans. And I think that's pretty fair.
As for the despotism comment... what was a better example of despotism, iraq before this war or iraq now? |
