"Long live the people and death to their enemies!"
Saddam yelled this when he was found guilty of war crimes and sentenced to death by hanging. I think he got that one right, if only he would understand that he was his country's worst enemy. For the record, Saddam has stated his preference for a firing squad.
Speaking of people who may not be working for right side, Saddam's lawyer, Ramsey Clark, is a real piece of work. In the last 50 years he has an amazing record of picking the wrong side of a court case. He's defended two Nazis, cult leader David Koresh, a pro-marijuana group, African mass murderers like Charles Taylor (Liberia) and Elizaphan Ntakirutimana (Rwanda), Palestinian and Iranian terrorists and anti-American groups, army deserters, Serbian war criminals like Slobodan Milošević, and other assorted murderers, war criminals, and anti-American radicals. And then he worked pro-bono for Saddam Hussein.
What a guy.
