Iraqis want Saddam tried as war criminal
upi.com

WASHINGTON, Jan. 28 (UPI) -- A group of Iraqi dissidents Tuesday called for Saddam Hussein to be tried as a war criminal before an international tribunal for crimes against humanity.

[...]

He stressed that, in a post-Saddam Iraq, only a democratic government, and not another dictatorship, can prevent terrorists from acquiring weapons of mass destruction and using them against the American people.

The Iraqi-American Council demands that Saddam and his lieutenants must be brought to justice before an international tribunal for war crimes and crimes committed against humanity, just like former Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic.

"If Saddam imposes a war on us, this war must be a war of liberation and NOT occupation," Al-Taee said.

"This will not be a war between two nations," he added, but rather, "a war of humanity against brutality, a war of the free world against the forces of darkness."
