I pity the fool who tries to deny my right to a fair trial!
Facing execution by hanging, a feisty Saddam Hussein “scuffled” with guards at his trial and pleaded “innocent” to charges of murder and mayhem, although there’s no such plea. But Saddam has more important things on his mind, I’m sure.
Probably traumatized by years of raping, torturing, and killing his subjects, violating the inconvenient and much-too-annoying Geneva Convention, feisty Saddam indicated that a hands-off-me-scumbags approach was best:
The confrontation then became physical. When a break was called, Saddam stood, smiling, and asked to step out of the room. When two guards tried to grab his arms to escort him out, he angrily shook them off…They tried to grab him again, and Saddam struggled to free himself. Saddam and the guards shoved each other and yelled for about a minute.
It ended with Saddam getting his way, and he was allowed to walk independently, with the two guards behind him, out of the room for the break. (Source)
Smile, and the whole world smiles with you, Saddy.
