Personally, I have always said that the best thing to do with Saddam is to turn him over to the French for trail, they will (probably) convict him and banish him to some small island in the Atlantic from whence he will stage an invasion of France and take over the country, then we can go liberate France and all would be right wiht the world once again.
Seriously though, I don’t see what the big rush is to see this guy tried and executed. This does nothing to support the legitimacy of the new interim government and if anything works against them. If they were really serious about establishing a new democratic government free from corruption then this puppet trail of Saddam is not exactly the best way to lead off. I’d wait a few years until a fully elected government had been put in place, a constitution had been established, and laws had been laid out with a court established to try those charged with violation of those laws.
