Divine Justice or Politcal Ploy? World differs..
on Saddam's verdict.
http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/n...a-9500238979d9 Saddam Hussein's death sentence was celebrated by some on Sunday as justice deserved or even divine, but denounced by others as a political ploy two days before critical U.S. midterm congressional elections. |

Of course, you can make of it what you want.
Technically speaking the whole trial is a joke; if Saddam can be persecuted, and Blair thinks it is a just verdict, why did he desperately try to save Pinochet from even facing trial for the crimes against humanity Pinochet was responsible for? The guy was already arrested. Not to mention crimes Western world leaders are responsible for ... Selective justice is no justice at all. It will simply be perceived that he will be sentenced because he did not do what Western powers wanted him to do. That will only add fuel to the argument of anti-Western resistance.
