AN IRAQI lawyer in Saddam Hussein's defence team has gone into
hiding after
receiving several death threats, the chief attorney for the deposed
Iraqi
leader said yesterday.
Khalil al-Duleimi, one of 25 lead attorneys representing Saddam, told
other
lawyers in the defence team that the threats began after he met the
ousted
dictator in December.
Saddam appeared in a Baghdad court in July 2004 on charges of war
crimes and
genocide.
Bad Saddam.
It's not as if Bush's Army and the new Iraqy government has been
torturing and sexually abusing prisonners.
(Krudish/terrorist genocide) It's not as if Bush killed men and
children in order to get to terrorists in Fallujah. It's not as if
there's still terrorist in Fallujah. Heck Bush was mercifull for he did
let some leave mind you this decision was done by a King unlike Saddam
living far far away from terrorist. And hey heck it's been two whole
years of this where as Saddam has had 30 years of this while ALSO being
attacked by Iran Shiites and the OWN Shiites in his country.
AND THEY LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER.
And the apostle and christ stood before the Roman Kings, questionning
the Kings and the Kings Denied and went away.
And the pharisees stood before questionning Christ and Christ did not
reply and walked away.
He is awaiting trial before a special tribunal.
Ziad al-Khasawneh, Saddam's chief defence attorney, said his
colleague had
received phone calls warning that "suicide cells had been formed
specifically
to liquidate him so that he would set an example to all other
attorneys who
have volunteered to defend President Saddam".
"He feared for his and his family's lives; therefore, he has since
gone into
hiding," Mr al-Khasawneh said.
Ghazi al-Yawer, the interim Iraqi president, said last week that the
trial of
Saddam and his 11 top lieutenants could begin shortly after
Sunday's
elections. However, some United States and Iraqi officials have said
preparations for prosecuting the former regime's top officials will
take
months.
