I know attorneys are not always likeable. But, this is a little extreme.
One
of Saddam Hussein's lawyers was abducted from his home and later found
shot to death Wednesday, becoming the third member of the defence team killed
since the former Iraqi leader's trial began eight months ago.
Khamis al-Obeidi, who represented Saddam and his half brother Barzan Ibrahim
in the trial, was abducted at about 7 a.m. local time by men wearing
police uniforms, court and police officials said.
He was shot dead and his body was later found on the street near Sadr City.
When assassins want to hide their identities, they know how to do it.
These guys wanted the world to know (or think) that the killers are the same ones
doing all the so-called ethnic cleansing.
Unlike some of other members on the defence team, al-Obeidi continued to
live in Baghdad during the trial, even after two other defence lawyers were
killed.
"Whatever will be will be," he told Reuters last
year.
Hmmm . . .
"Que
sera, sera,
Whatever will be, will be;
The future's not ours to see.
Que sera, sera,
What will be, will be."
And now he's dead. Alfred Hitchock couldn't have come up with a scarier ending.
Saddam must be in panic mode.
Qui Bono?
