Bombs rock Baghdad as Saddam judgement published

by Sabah Jerges 51 minutes ago

BAGHDAD (AFP) - An Iraqi court has published its formal written condemnation of
Saddam Hussein, setting into motion the legal machinery leading to his execution, as 25 people were killed in attacks.

The confirmation of the ousted dictator's death sentence came as his foe US
President George W. Bush convened a meeting of his top security advisers to find a way to stem the rising bloodshed in
Iraq.

More than three and a half years after a US-led invasion deposed Saddam's totalitarian regime, the country remains in the grip of a vicious sectarian conflict that claims more than 100 Iraqi lives daily.
