These are the preliminary hearings. The actual trial will take place somewhere next year.
By the way, given the history of Saddam's rise to power (military coup), I really don't think he's in a position to claim the new government and judicial system are illegal.
And frankly, I don't think the UN should be stepping in (as some of their officials seem to be suggesting) to make sure he gets a fair trial. How do you give a man like Saddam a fair trial? It's as if he could possibly be innocent or something...
But from what I hear/read, the evidence against Saddam is so overwhelming that only a confession signed in his own blood could be better.
pan6467: he'll be dead in a matter of days.
