IRAQ THE MODEL: Counting down IRAQ THE MODEL: Counting down

IRAQ THE MODEL: Counting down until Saddam Hussein is gone. Current estimated time of his demise is 6 a.m. Baghdad time, 10 p.m. EST, and 8 p.m. here in MST. His lawyers have asked a federal judge in D.C. to not allow the U.S. to turn him over to the Iraqis, arguing that he didn't get a fair trial. Apparently, they think that our Bill of Rights applies to foreign mass murderers. The scheme probably won't work though, since the Iraqis have had legal custody over him for quite awhile, while the U.S. retained physical custody.

Apparently, there is a curfew tonight in Baghdad, JIC. A lot of Iraqis seem to be looking forward to this.
