Should they let Saddam starve to death?

Just a ploy to keep the sham of a trial from continuing.

Sure; we all know how the trial will end up. Personally, I think they should've just shot him in the head the second they found him and avoided all this crap. By giving him a "trial", they gave him free license to stall the inevitable for as long as possible. B.S.

And I don't like P&N; for me to go there would be like going to my son's mother's house with a cake. It just ain't gonna happen.

I think it's sad that you can feel this way. Even the worst criminals deserve a fair trial.

I'm sure the its pretty painful to feel your body eat it self to death.


Screw em', he deserve it.

Edit - I see they gave him a feeding tube. Its not a hunger strike anymore. If he doesn't want to finish this trail and go to jail like a good little boy, then he can stay in a hospital bed forever, not being able to move a limb.

I would rather just be shot in the head rather than suffer just to wait for an inevitable death.

Saddam needs a friend to play with. Solution: Capture Kim Jong-il and put them in the same cell.

Nah, too good for him. I think 'eye for an eye' is pretty appropriate here. They should torture him within an inch of his life before they kill him. That was good enough for his victims.

If we did what you suggest, we would be no better than him.

I think that anyone who is stupid enough to starve themselves to death to try to blackmail others is no big loss.
