I think
this fellow would do better in Cuba or Iran than in Britan.
Saddam offered his people a harsh deal. Yet, their lives were at
risk only if they chose to challenge his authority. Now, they die
because of the sect to which they happen to belong. Soon, their country
may fall prey to a savage civil war. If that happens, the Iranians will
doubtless intervene, along, perhaps, with Turkey and Israel. No one can
predict where that might lead, but the outcome is unlikely to be
positive for peace, prosperity, justice or, indeed, human rights.
If Saddam were still in power, he would have stopped this happening.
Iraq's dissidents would have paid a price, but the rest of us would be
a lot better off. As he goes to meet the hangman, the world has cause
to rue his demise.
