Happy New Year !

Hello everyone, and a happy 2007. Once again sorry for not putting any postings up but have yet again been having problems with my broadband system.

It was not a very good start to 2007 with the hanging of Saddam Hussein. I am appalled at the whole process of his trial and subsequent hannging. Saddam should of been tried by an independent U.N court in another country for All his crimes, and if the sentence was death then he should of been kept on death row for several years, so he could mount proper appeals. And if eventually he was to be killed then that again should be carried out by non-Iraqis. Instead we have Shite Iraqis putting him on trial and then killing him which goes against any idea of a united Iraq.
