-->Ich hatte vor 2 Tagen in einem US-Forum gelesen:
Saddam Threatens to Expose US

JEDDAH, 27 December 2003
— Former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, now being grilled by American investigators, has reportedly warned US authorities that he will expose Washington’s “political games” and its behind-the-scene role in the occupation of Kuwait.
“Saddam threatened that if they continue to pressure him he will reveal startling facts — about America’s political games with his country — that would shock the whole world,” Al-Watan Arabic daily quoted a high-level European source as saying.
/snip/. I don't think too many DUers would be shocked, but the world might
Back to the article:
"According to the European source close to US investigators, Saddam also said that he would ask the International Court of Justice in The Hague to try the United States for its crimes against the Iraqi people for allegedly using internationally prohibited weapons against the Iraqis during the last two wars against his country.
“If the Americans want to try me in a court of law, they should also try high-ranking international officials,” the source quoted the former Iraqi dictator as saying. Saddam has insisted that his statements are recorded verbatim, the paper said."
Hmmmm - will this hit the Western Media?
And if this report is true, Saddam may not make it to a court, any court.
National Security and all, y'know - -

bezieht sich wohl auf Deinen 2.Link ;)
Andererseits ist das alles doch schon längst bekannt, dass Saddam"ihr" Schweinhund war -genauso wie Osama, überrascht doch außerhalb der USA niemanden wirklich.
Und was ellenlange Prozeße angeht, wer weiß schon was z.B. Milosevic so alles abläßt? Es wird nicht drüber berichtet und aus die Maus. Vom Saddam-Prozeß würden auch nur die Anklagen zu hören sein (aus den Folterkellern Saddams!) und der Rest ausgeblendet.
Wenn sie ihn"beseitigen" dann weniger wegen seiner vermeintlichen Enthüllungen, sondern weil ein solcher Prozeß eher nach Märtyrium oder Siegerjustiz aussähe und dem Widerstand womöglich noch mehr Symapathien brächte.
Ich bin mir jedenfalls noch nicht so sicher das die Amis das Ding ĂĽberhaupt gewinnen.
