Reply #39: Justice would have required a fair trial.

[ScottytheRadical]

"Justice" doesn't involve the winning side of a conflict publicly executing all of their enemies. If that was justice, I'd consider the French Revolution an ideal model for proletarian uprising. Justice involves a war criminal being judged and held accountable by a neutral party, in this case probably an international party. Saddam Hussein should have been tried and sentenced by the International Criminal Court - not by former enemies of his regime. The entire trial was a sham. If Iraqi "democracy" is to gain any ground, they need to do it by following internationally-respected rules of law. Not by executing people Texas-style.
