4 death sentences:
Jan 2010: For ordering the gas attack on the Kurdish town of Halabja in 1988 in which 5,000 people died March 2009: For the 1999 killings of Shia Muslims in the Sadr City district of Baghdad Dec 2008: For his role in crushing a Shia revolt after the 1991 Gulf War June 2007: For his role in a military campaign against ethnic Kurds, codenamed Anfal, from February to August of 1988 To be served concurrently, apparently. One law for the rich and one for the rest of us, isn't it. |

Lord Haw-Haw was hanged - a WWII propagandist...

From Wiki :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Haw-haw Joyce was captured by British forces in northern Germany just as the war ended, tried, and eventually hanged for treason on 3 January 1946. Joyce's defence team, appointed to him by the court, argued that, as an American citizen and naturalised German, Joyce could not have been convicted of treason against the British Crown. However, the prosecution successfully argued on the basis of a technicality that having lied about his nationality to obtain a British passport and to vote, Joyce owed allegiance to the king. Was murder then... |

He was not British so should not have been hanged for treason... madsimon 25 Jan 17:08 well he had a british passport as the case showed But he lied on his passport application, so it was invalid and he was not British. So he was innocent of Treason , guilty of falsifyng his application , for which the punishment was a £1 fine |
