BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Saddam Hussein and the seven co -defendants in his trial are to start a hunger strike on Monday, the former Iraqi president's defence team said on Sunday, citing sources inside the detention centre where they are being held.

"Saddam and his followers will start a hunger strike from tomorrow, protesting the illegitimate procedures and bad treatment by the court," Khamis al-Aubeidi, a leading member of Saddam's defence team, told Reuters.

The more I think about this idiot & how he doesn't even take this trial seriously, he is truly demented, and the DUmmies still think it was a waste for Bush to remove him!

I just do not understand who does this man think he is? We need the Nurenburg trials like in 1945. I am shocked that he thinks that he too good to come for court. If it was you and me we couldnt just refuse to go.
We need to just hang this stupid ass.
