Dont hang Saddam

our activities in Iraq get worse with every passing day. The decision to execute Saddam Hussain is morally corrupt and the hanging should not go ahead. Apart from anything else the man is nearly seventy so if the execution could be delayed until April next year than under the Iraqi constitution he cannot be hanged.He should have been sent to the Hague to stand trial there but somehw, as in the parlance of awful American films he would have sung like a canary. All the truths would have come out and the governments of the west powers would hang their heads in shame as the misdeeds over arming Iraq to fight Iran, the corruption over the oil for food program the support given to his opponents which was then withdrawn when they most needed it after the first Iraq war.Everybody but a total liar or lunatic knows that the war in Iraq was not about weapons of mass destruction but was about regime change. Well there has now been regime change so withdraw now. An announcement on armistice day would not go amiss to the effect that our troops are being withdrawn, now because the job has been completed. We are totally disgraced and both Bush and Blair will soon stand trial for their part in an illegal war and occupation.
