Iraqis said Saddam was likely use the images to condemn the court as an illegal creation of occupying U.S. forces.

Reaction in the heartland of his once-dominant Arab Sunni minority was predictable. He is seen there as a hero overthrown in a plot to impose U.S. domination in the name of human rights.

"His rule is now being tried by American agents with Iraqi faces while they try to keep what is taking place at Abu Ghraib secret," said Abdul Sadoun, an engineer in the former rebel stronghold of Falluja.

"This is evidence that Saddam was ruling the country with justice. We did not see any Iraqi being tortured in his time."

1. Stupid, stupid, stupid

Now our war criminal leaders have given an out to a known criminal dictator. Why in heavens did anyone think that torture would help the situation? Were US citizens that scared after 9/11 that we thought unreliable information from obscene torture procedures would actually help us? Where is the careful analysis, the thoughtful study of information gathering techniques to ensure we don't embolden our enemies? This shot from the hip gangster we have in office is a serious threat to world stability.
