In Iraq today, Saddam Hussein’s defense team walked out of the trial in a attempt at protest. Saddam’s half-brother Ibrahim shouted, “Why don't you just execute us and get rid of all of this!” An excellent suggestion Ibrahim…however the Americans have been trying to civilize the courts in Iraq. Like giving the defendants a chance (even if they don't deserve it), unlike the courts under your half-brother. The judge has warned the ex-president of Iraq that if his defense team walks out again there will be new lawyers appointed. Two of Saddam's lawyers have ahve been assassinated since the trial began in mid-October.
