THE HAGUE, Netherlands - Saddam Hussein's lawyers face major challenges from the United States and Iraq to their demand to move his trial to another country after two of their colleagues were killed.
Saddam's attorneys have argued all along that the only fair trial would be one held in a special international court outside Iraq. Now about 1,100 lawyers have withdrawn from his defense team, citing inadequate protection for themselves and their families.
1100 lawyers? What do they all do? It sounds like he could afford to lose a few! That's not a defense team, that's a defense army! Oh wait, I get it now...
WOW! Dumped by 1100 lawyers? That kind of rejection has to hurt. The question is how many Lawyers does he still have, and what is wrong with them? Must be true believers is all I can think of.
