t r u t h o u t - Barry Lando | Saddam Hussein, a Biased Trial: "On December 13, 2003, American troops pulled Saddam Hussein out of the narrow lair in which he was hiding. In an article written in the heat of the moment for Salon.com, I presumed that many important people around the world, rather than rejoicing to finally see the former Iraqi tyrant captured alive, would have preferred to see him dead. That would have supplied a clear and clean end to the story. There would have been no need for a trial."
