I find this a tad hypocritical.

As part of our campaign against Saddam he is now being tried for crimes which took place while he was ruler of Iraq. While he set the laws and the justice system answered to him. While he controlled the melting pot on Iraq and kept it all under a short leash and in control. Now we of course a changing all this and he has to answer to actions he took against his own people.

Would be interesting if we did the same thing when our leaders were deposed. If the UK looked at our police force executing innocent Brazilians. If the US looked at executing the mentally challenged whilst drugging them to make them lucid while their life was extinguished. That would make an interesting discussion in court.

What a bunch of hypocrites.
