I was watching the sentence being announced on TV this morning and there was this guy (from the defense team I guess) protesting to the judge that someone else in the courtroom is laughing and 'chewing gum'. The judge had to pause for a moment. I couldn't help but to laugh. There is this historic moment with the judge reading the sentence, and someone interrupts him to complain about a chewing gum!
I saw this live on TV and I could see that the judge was very very irritated with that Clark report. I wonder what was in that report.
That's not justice...Where's the 15-20 years of appeals???
Before the session began, one of Saddam's lawyers, former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark, was ejected from the courtroom after handing the judge a memorandum in which he called the trial a travesty.
Chief Judge Raouf Abdul-Rahman pointed to Clark and said in English, "Get out."
Bhwhahahahaahah!

"I saw this live on TV and I could see that the judge was very very irritated with that Clark report. I wonder what was in that report."
Clark is a lawyer, so his argument is easily predictable if you've ever watched any criminal defense type in action: "my client didn't do it, and when he did it, he didn't know it was a crime. Plus, you are singling him out for prosecution because he is a [fill in the blank with the persecuted minority of your choice]. The defense will now call expert witnesses..."
Wait a minute I thought Chris was Satan lover or did Saddam send him to Detriot LOL!
Is he going to the huki-lau?
Pray for this poor soul's soul.
