from what i understand, Saddam Hussein is'nt being tried for the gassing of many innocent Kurds in Halabja in the early 80's ( apparently the West were more than happy to turn a blind eye to what he was up to at the time.. there were a few murky deals going on at the time involving arms deals with the West)
As George Galloway famously said in those senate hearings.. "I met Saddam Hussein the same amount of times as Donald Rumsfeld.. but i was'nt the one selling him weapons"!

The situation in Iraq is utterly dire, and are getting worse .. i try to take my mind off it by playing Scrabble on the old Playstation2. ( i can give the computer a good game at level 3)
