Saddam's trial


I felt very sad to see the deposed Iraqi President Saddam Hussein appearing before a court in chains and shackles. If you act unjustly, fate will not spare you, you will have to pay for it one way or the other. But I was also glad when I saw that Saddam Hussein stole the show, though he looked emaciated, he talked authoritatively and with pride, he was not nervous and all through the interrogation he responded with intelligence and eloquence.

We do not know what is in store for Saddam Hussein because in Iraq many people are supporting him and many are against him, we have to wait and see what happens.

But what about G.W. Bush, the President of the United States? Should not he be also brought to justice? In the name of war on terror, he has wrought havoc on the whole world, thousands of people have died 'including members of the coalition forces'. Many more have been maimed. Iraq, the land called the seat of civilization, has turned into ruins; all these happened due to the whims of Bush. To fulfil his wishes, Bush did not hesitate to resort to deception and lies.

I think if a survey is conducted about the most hated persons in the world today, Bush will top the list. If you commit a crime, you shall be punished for it. It is the law of nature.
