Democracy at its finest hour!

Article

'The police said the ambush today appeared to have been carefully planned, with three carloads of gunmen attacking the lawyers' car as it drove through the suburb of al-Adel at lunchtime.Attackers in one car then boldly followed the ambulance carrying the surviving lawyer to the Yarmouk hospital, the police said, perhaps looking for a second chance to kill him. The spokesman said there were no immediate suspects.'

Never has there been something like this during 25 years of my life reported. This is a sign of western democracy at its finest. It is good the Americans have pushed the people into having criminal trials. It seems to be not working though since 'criminals', as they are called, chase behind ambulances just for another chance to kill someone.What is wrong with this trial? It really doesn’t seem real at all. Is CNN there? Surely this does not have the same coverage like the OJ Simpson Trial a few years back.Is it even worth putting him on trial? How many Iraqis supported and still support him? How many want him dead? Would an exile just be better? But then again most of the information circulating in the western world is propaganda. Why did Bush decide to punish him now for crimes that happened long ago, and when they were allies? How much money did the United States make gun running? Lord of War anyone?
