Germany and France.

Is it possible to dislike the governments of Germany and France any more than you do now? Our "allies" have condemned the use of the death penalty for Saddam Hussein. Great idea! Saddam can sit in stir for a few years, maybe get paroled like Joel Steinberg someday. We can all scratch our heads at the absurd rule that lets a prisoner out after only two-thirds of his sentence if he has "good time." (Aren't convicts supposed to be good all the time)? But wait now, no one told me that vicious killers sentenced to say twenty years, only have to do two-thirds.

But getting back to Saddam, it would be good if he weren't dead since then he can still be the figurehead leader of a Baathist insurgency. Come on, the Sunnis have so little, they need the hope that Saddam will once again return to power. Who knows, if he's kept alive, he just might.

Base10 thinks the Iraqis should decide this for themselves without the interference of European stupidity.
