I always say that there is no humiliation that is visited on Saddam that is sufficient to punish him for his crimes. I should add that there is no punishment sufficient for Saddam or his half-brother Barazan. This pathetic former head of Saddam's intelligence apparatus, whose tenure witnessed an elaboration and development of torture techniques, now wrote a letter that was printed in a Kuwaiti newspaper in which he pleaded with (and with fawning praise) Bush, King `Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, and any other leader that he can beg. What a pathetic Ba`thist junta it was.
