BAGHDAD, Iraq - Iraq's prime minister on Saturday urged his countrymen to accept the impending verdict against Saddam Hussein without violence, then in the next breath declared the former dictator must get "what he deserves" with the decision that could send him to the gallows.
Did you happen to watch that special, "Obsession" on Fox tonight? I recorded it but I think they replay it again tomorrow. I wish everyone would watch it.
Was it Janice Dean?
I just heard someone talking about life in prison for Saddam. You don't suppose that there is any chance of that happening, do you?
Have to find a good recipe for lasagna .. I was thinking of making it (without the turkey) for thanksgiving also
We have veggies in the family who don't eat meat
I've tried to take those shortcuts before but I end up with a mush instead of a dressing. Wonder what I'm doing wrong.
I make my cornbread the day before, let it and the white bread sit out overnight where there's not much moisture left and then I start putting the stuffing together.
YES! I watched and thought the timing for the broadcast was excellent! I hope it replays several times. It has once.
I will. I plan to scrape some of the flesh out and nuke it till soft, then puree it and add it to the custard, so the inside is more like our regular pumpkin pie filling.
If you bake it long enough for the custard to set, the shell starts to collapse, so I want it to be quicker setting up than normal. Also, when I'm doing them whole this way, I can't bake the shells first and then scoop out the baked flesh, like I do for pie.
It's supposed to be made with a little cornmeal in it, Indian style, (like the colonials learned from the Native Americans that first Thanksgiving and passed down to other colonists through the years) but I'm thinking of making some gingersnap and cornflake crumbs instead, for the thickening agent.
That's her!
LOL! The Fox bimbo just asked if the timing was because of the US elections?...
Yes, I think that's her name.
So what is the exact time the verdict is supposed to come? The BBC tends to not give exact time for these things unless it is a shuttle launch (in which case it is often delayed, anyway).
My husband watched and taped it. He says it's chilling. I'll have to catch it later.
Verdict of the lawsuit of Saddam Hussein: opening of the audienceBAGHDAD - the audience of the High Iraqi penal court which must return its verdict in the lawsuit of Saddam Hussein for the execution of 148 villagers Shiites in years 1980 is opened Sunday with 10H30 (07H30 GMT) in the strengthened sector of the green zone.
Judge Raouf Rachid Abdel Rahmane called Mohammed Azzam Al-Ali, one of the eight shown, but the others, whose former Iraqi president, are not present in the room of the court.
The Attorney General Jaafar Al-Moussaoui had asked for the abandonment of the continuations against Mohammed Azzam Al-Ali, old responsible local for the Baath party (dissolved).
Saddam Hussein, who directed the country of an iron hand of 1979 until her fall in April 2003, and seven former persons in charge for her mode, are continued for the massacre of 148 villagers Shiites of Doujaïl, killed in reprisals after an attack missed against the former president in 1982.
During the lawsuit which proceeded of October 19, 2005 to July 27, 2006, the death penalty was necessary against Saddam Hussein, 69 years, its half-brother, Barzan Al-Tikriti, former owner of the information at the time of the facts, and the former vice-president, Taha Yassin Ramadan.
1st co-defendant cleared, insufficient evidence.
I don't think anyone knows for certain. FOX said a few hours, but I think that was just a guess.
Ramsey Clarke removed from courtroom.
I heard that too! LWOP? Only if Iraq has liberal judges too.
CNN International - Azzam Al-Ali found not guilty
