They have a choice in taking or refusing the job, just like most of us. Their reasons are just that - their reasons.
Put hussain in front of the World Court of Justice, that outta do the trick.

Evidence is a means to an end. If you don't agree with the end, you withold your services.


It seems selfish to me, IMHO.

What about justice for the victims?

I'm not trying to start a flame fest, I honestly feel those refusing to help are being needlessly selfish.

If Iraq and or the coalition stated that Saddam would not be executed then the forensic guys would do their job.

As regards the victims, why do you assume that the death penalty is the only method of obtaining justice. Should Iraq or the coalition rule out the death penalty for Saddam they would then be playing their part in obtaining justice for the victims.  A life sentence is a just punishment.

The death penalty is barbaric and does a disservice to any country that still uses it.

I think you'll be able to find experts somewhere else, their reaction here is probably more political than personal.

Sadaam must go, he will be an indirect threat like it has been stated here above if he is kept alive. I'm usualy not for death penalty... except in some cases, like this one.

I'm euro.

Finding the evidence and meeting out justice should be two separate issues.
I see no moral problem in helping to find the evidence. Lobbying against death penalty can come at a later stage if they so chooses.

Without seeing an opinion poll I'd still guess / believe resistance to death penalty is very widespread in europe since no government applies it. Otherwise it would change.

Perhaps has there is no death penalty in europe because living in europe is punishment enough?

Sir you have been found guilty you must now live in europe for 10 years before you shall be eligible for parole...........*gasp*......NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.  Boohoohoo Boohoohoo.

I say no to the death penalty for a few reasons. The number one is that sooner or later someone will be wrongly convicted and there is no way to "fix" it if the guy has been killed.

Am I the only one who feels that life in prison is the real barbarism?   I believe the death penalty should be used only if the proof is irrefutable.

I meant real life in prison not 5 years and out.  I would also say that the death penalty should be reserved for the worst murders.

I do not believe in parole either or in letting someone loose but then making them a second class citizen who has no voting ritghts and can't own a firearm.

Wasn't there a child molestor that went to prison and ended up getting sodomized to death a few years back?

child molesters should be humnanely put down... like an animal with rabies.   It isn't their fault and I say better luck in the next life.

The liberals would rather continue the torture.
