Saddam Lawyer Demands Torture, Execution

Satire from ScrappleFace
By Scott Ott on Law

(2005-12-05) — Former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark, part of Saddam Hussein’s defense team, today attacked the credibility and fairness of the court where his client faces mass murder charges, and demanded that Mr. Hussein be treated as defendants were during the former Iraqi president’s rule.

“This court is nothing but an American puppet institution,” said Mr. Clark. “My client has the right to receive traditional Iraqi-style justice by being secretly tortured, executed and dumped into a mass grave with the other defendants.”

Mr. Clark branded the court proceedings “a sham designed to justify the Bush administration’s illegal war against Iraq.”

“Under Saddam Hussein’s regime, no defendant would have been allowed to languish in a jail cell for months as evidence was gathered in his defense,” Mr. Clark said. “We demand indigenous Iraqi justice immediately.”

The trial judge declared a recess to allow Mr. Hussein time to teach Mr. Clark how to chant anti-American slogans in Arabic.
