Charles Johnson connects the dots and finds they lead from Saddam Hussein to who else?
LONDON (AFP) – Former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein is preparing a legal challenge in the United States to his trial for war crimes, a newspaper reports, citing leaked papers prepared by his defense team.
Clive Stafford Smith, a British human rights lawyer, has prepared a 50-page brief which contains advice to take the case to US courts to ensure he receives a fair trial, the Sunday Times reported after saying it had seen the document.
The action is to ensure that Saddam receives the basic legal rights given to those tried in the United States, such as full access to his defense team and an independent judge and jury, the newspaper said.
It said the leaked brief is entitled “The Iraqi Special Tribunal as Victors’ Justice – the Inherent Illegality and Bias of the Whole Process.”
George Soros couldn’t buy the US election (although he now claims ownership of the Democratic Party – big deal), so now he wants to defend Saddam? What next? the devil himself? Saddam should be afforded the same human rights he gave to his hundreds of thousands of victims.
Yanno, it would almost be fun to try him here. At least in my nice little ‘red’ area. I suspect the jury would recommend the death sentence and send him back to Iraq to have it administered where he committed the crime.
Correction: Crimes. Multiple.
My question to Soros….Why?
