"Saddam has competent Iraqi attorneys."

So by your logic those attorneys "hate America?"

"Clark, who has no knowledge of Iraqi law,"

There is no Iraqi law written dealing with mass murder and oppression, or crimes against humanity. Who would that have applied to pre-liberation?

"volunteered in order to hurt this Administration's efforts in Iraq"

Do tell, how do his efforts hurt the Administration's efforts in Iraq? I'm no fan of Clark, but he deserves recognition and respect for stepping to to assist US in getting Saddam Hussein a real trial so we can do this right.

He deserves to be spit on THEN hung for aiding and abetting an enemy AND as a traitor to the United States of America....

And that's just for his past "work."

That is as logical as saying that criminal defense attorneys love crime. An Iraqi citizen, on trial in Iraq, represented by Iraqi attorneys. It would look very bad if the US brought an attorney to prosecute or a judge. It would look like we were trying to fix the trial. It is an Iraqi trial. Clark was pulling an attention getting stunt by jumping in this which he had absolutely no business doing. The world is watching this trial, and if the US is overly involved and Saddam is sentenced to death, some could alledge that the US sent Clark to trip up the defense. Not everyone is familiar with Clark and his anti-american stunts.

Wow. Climb out of your spider hole and read the reports of his strategy. Clark's defense strategy it to attack the Iraqi invasion as illegal and unjustified. He'll lie, the media will drop to its collective needs and do a Lewinski, and useful idiots like you will repeat it as the Gospel, thereby giving him the necessary 20-30% of the population needed to continue the insurgency.

If you believe Ramsey Clark has any interest in "assisting the US" to "do this right", you are sadly mistaken.

Ramsey Clark is a founder of the World Workers Party, a Stalinist front, and International ANSWER. He is as anti-American as they come.

His only interest in representing Saddam is to embarrass the United States (note: not Bush, not Republicans, but the United States).
