A Day in Paradise

This is old news by now… just wondering how the european section of the “coalition of the willing” will do anything to stop the handing over of saddam since it so directly opposes the European stance on Death Penalty.

With Iraqis braced for Saddam Hussein’s execution, the former dictator’s lawyer said Friday the U.S. military has asked that he arrange for Hussein’s personal belongings to be picked up.

But Hussein has not been handed over to Iraq authorities for execution and remained in U.S. custody Friday, according to Iraqi Deputy Justice Ministry Bosho Ibrahim.

Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri Al-Maliki said Friday that nothing will stop or delay the execution, according to Iraqi national television.

I’m not sure if I’m really surprised at the outcome of this kangaroo court, it’ll be interesting to see what ensues in the weeks following.
