Saddam should be tried in a "neutral" World court.
As it stands, he will likely be tried by the Iraqi Governing Council. A council appointed by the US and made up of people who have had members of their family killed by Saddam's regime.
1) This is not a group of people who are going to giving him a "fair" trial.
2) It smacks of US involvment and influence on the outcome. This is a sure-fire way of feeding the anti-US sentiments in Iraq and other hot spots.
We need the neutrality so that ALL of his links to the US, France, Germany, etc. will be exposed. We need to see how he was supported by MANY nations.
We also need to see the extent of his activities in Iraq.
Yes, the people Iraq need to see justice done to this mad man, but it needs to be done in such a way that is fair and just.
