Reconciliation is essential. This trial can either divide or heal. And unless it is seen as absolutely fair, and as absolutely fair in fact, it will irreconcilably divide the people of Iraq.
Cutting off the president (Saddam) was absolutely unwarranted. He has international rights to a public trial.
What was the government doing? ... (FBI agents) had absolutely no regard of the lives of any of the people in there. All they had to do was wait them out.
This trial can divide or heal. Unless it is seen as absolutely fair, and fair in fact, it will divide rather than reconcile Iraq.
A fair trial in this case is absolutely imperative for historical truth.
