Former US attorney-general Ramsey Clark is to join Saddam Hussein's defence team, a spokesman for the ousted Iraqi president's lawyers says. Clark, a former top US justice official, has become known as a left-wing lawyer and firm critic of US foreign policy since leaving office. He visited Saddam in Baghdad in February 2003 just before the US-lead invasion and has also been involved with the defence of former Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic, on trial for war crimes at a UN court in The Hague. Clark also said the US itself must be tried for the November assault on Fallujah, destruction of houses, torture in prisons and its role in the deaths of thousands of Iraqis in the war.
Editors Note: I suggest we revoke the U.S. citizenship of Ramsey Clark and let him go live with his buddies.

I would not deny a defense team to Saddam, but anyone like Clark who wants to remove Bush from office and defend Saddam I think need by examined by mental health professionals!
