It was very funny to hear the judge sentence Saddam's chief judge to death
for taking part in trials which were political rather than legal & for
signing death sentences in such a case.

Pot....meet Mr Kettle.

"Before the session began, one of Saddam's lawyers, former U.S.
Attorney General Ramsey Clark, was ejected from the courtroom after handing
the judge a memorandum in which he called the trial a travesty.

Chief Judge Raouf Abdul-Rahman pointed to Clark and said in English,
"Get out."

There is no reason to think that were the gov to change the current judge
could not also be executed under this precedent.
