But he needs to pay for his crimes. I would place justice over mercy any day. Saddam Hussein is one of the worst people alive today, and for him to cry about his "rights" being stolen from him (because he was seen in his undergarments) is to slap the face of morality.Quote:

If they violated his rights i hope he wins, if they didnt i hope he loses, human rights apply to those who didnt give them, also.
Am I the only one who sees the irony in this?
He may as well sue the people who decide his punishment because punishment is against his rights.
I thought that was the funny part of the story. =/Quote:

Human rights belong to every citizen of this world, no matter how dispicable. Saddam Hussein deserves justice, and he will get it. But a violation of human rights (no matter who the 'human' is) is not tolerable.
Exactly. I don't really care about this particular case, but you can't single people out to void their individual rights.Quote:

Of course it is - because if he can sue for embarrasement, some woman who Saddam killed her husband and used her son as a meat shield and torched her house could also sue for damages.
It'd be pretty interesting.
the only good thing to come out of all this natiness is the sun are gettiung sued, murdoch will lose money and i'll be happier for that.
Totally agree. If they don't, it makes us no better nor worse than that evil regime.Quote:

I find this more amusing then anything else. He's been deposed but he still thinks of himself as having status. Any tabloid worth it's salt has an army of lawyers, so he'll probably lose. He is in prison, but it's not like he can't still make money. Think of the Autobiography book deal.
rupert murdoch is a right wing idiot. his newspaper is one of the most poorly written, biased, flawed sheets of paper to call itself journalism.
it openly preaches against immigration, is plauged with nationalism, homophobic, anti-religious rights. and likes to be the judge and jury pf everyone.
the coverage it gives to pedophiles and it's overtly murderous words for them isn't very nice. it's obsession with pedophiles, asylum seekers, celebrity, mockery, gays, islam and breasts is just distasteful.
and being the biggest selling "newspaper" it influences a vast amount of people with these views.
