No, no, say the Republicans.
But:
"The full verdict, a document of several hundred pages, explaining how and why today’s judgment was reached was not released. U.S. officials said it should be ready by Thursday. So why issue the verdict today? U.S. court advisors told reporters today it was delayed mainly for technical reasons."
Oh, what on earth caused the rush to judgement?
"The court was created by the administration-controlled Coalition Provisional Authority and the administration still exercises considerable control over the court. The New York Times reports, “American influence…has been undeniably pervasive, with about 90 percent of the $145 million in annual costs for the court and associated investigations paid for by the United States Justice Department, and lawyers sent by Washington acting as advisers.”"

This trial was a farce. If Saddam really was a war criminal, he should have been tried in the Hague...
But that would have meant a real defense, at which point Saddam's support during the 1980s from the US would have been an issue. And we know the US refuses any type of real justice...only justice for our enemies.
There are too many things that were "coincidence" this month -
Foley's mess coming out
Haggard's hypocrisy
Gas prices continue to fall
Saddam sentenced to death
Kerry said another stupid thing
Makes me wonder if both sides are just as stupid as each other.
