Saddam Sentenced to Hang Again - This Time With Friends - Dan Rather?

@ 08:02 PM (19 months, 28 days ago)

 

A visibly shaken Saddam Hussein was found guilty of crimes against humanity on Sunday and sentenced to hang at a lightning session of the U.S.-sponsored court that has been trying him in Baghdad for the past year.

Two other senior aides, including his half-brother Barzan al-Tikriti, will also hang if their automatic appeals fail. His former vice-president was sentenced to life in prison and three minor Baath party officials received long jail sentences.

What do you mean I am going to hang too?

Shortly after the verdict was read in a heavily-fortified Baghdad courtroom, clashes broke out between gunmen and U.S. and Iraqi troops in two Sunni Muslim neighborhoods of the capital.

By contrast Shi'ites, the majority now dominating Iraq, swarmed into the streets, yelling in joy that the secular Sunni Arab who oppressed them for three decades is now likely to be executed.
