CAPTAIN HADDOCK IN A CAGE

'Congratulations! You Are in a Cage, Saddam' (NYSun)
"A Kurdish villager testified Tuesday he left behind his mother and two sisters as he fled a 1988 attack by Saddam Hussein's forces. Years later, his relatives' identity cards were found in a mass grave, he said," the AP reports.

"Congratulations! You are in a cage, Saddam," witness Ghafour Hassan Abdullah said as he stared at the ousted president.

Saddam listened silently but lost his temper when a lawyer described Iraqi Kurdish rebels as freedom fighters. "You are agents of Iran and Zionism! We will crush your heads!" he shouted.

Saddam and six others are on trial for their roles in the 1987-88 campaign known as Operation Anfal, launched after a Kurdish revolt in northern Iraq during the final stages of the 1980-88 war with Iran. If convicted, the defendants could face death by hanging. The trial was adjourned until Wednesday after the court heard four witnesses who implicated Saddam and his forces in gassing the Kurds and conducting mass arrests and killings of civilians.

And some people (such as Dem. Senator Rockefeller) argue Saddam should have been left in power?

WE ALL KNOW THAT THE IRANIANS AND THE "ZIONISTS" ARE WORKING TOGETHER.


BY THE WAY, WITH THE BEARD, DOESN'T SADDAM RESEMBLE CAPTAIN HADDOCK FROM THE TIN TIN BOOKS?
