I'm curious...What are those statistics. I sure hope that you wouldn't use statistics of an American Institution to prove that is the case in Iraq. Keep in mind too, that he was being delivered into Iraqi authority and protection. Seeing that his nephew was busted out of prison, I'd say the supposed statistics for an Iraqi force securing a notorious felon do not support your claim. Furthermore, there was an equally notorious dictator from Mexico who was captured by a certain Sam Houston. That man, General Santa Anna, was delivered into th custody of the United States. You wanna know how that story ended? He was sent by the US to live on a protected island in the Carribean, kind of like Monte Cristo, where he escaped, went back to Mexico, and brought FEAR back into the people, and started a new war! The moral of this story is this - The United States was looking for a way to get California and most of the Mexican territory into US hands so they could fulfill the Manifest Destiny.

Apply that to Iraq.

That is rich. Yes, I will provide statistics, however, you advise me not to use statistics that are not pertinent to Iraq, yet you immediately use a Sam Houston and Santa Anna reference? However, to indulge your little tryst with this analogy, the times were most certainly different and the means for securing the prisoner were most certainly less secure than they are now.....unless of course you are implying that 2007 Iraq is akin to 1846 Mexico, but you wouldn't be doing that now would you?

Incidentally, Jamaica and Columbia are nothing like Montecristo. Two are inhabited and one is not. Two are nations and one is an islet. But I suppose that if you were looking for effect and creating grandure, you almost succeeded. But alas, you didn't quite get it pulled off.

And unless you have seen any statistics, I would say that your supposed analysis of "the nortorious felon" are completely without merit.

I would reference you to [url="http://www.deathpenaltyproject.org"]deathpenalty.org[/url]; it is a great resource for world wide opposition to the death penalty.

[color="#FF0000"]you can lern from history. i wouldn't deny that. but to say that what is going on today in iraq is anything like what is going on today in american prisons just ain't the same thing.[/color]

[color="#FF0000"]they are countries today. not then. incidentally.[/color]

[color="#FF0000"]are you suggesting that Saddam is NOT a notorious felon?[/color]

[color="#FF0000"]how about ya just start with providing the stats you said you would provide, as they relate to a fallen, muderous dictator in iraq. and we'll go from there.[/color]

i've already heard the case against the death penalty in america. thus far, i can think of no person in america who deserves the death penalty...but that's not going to help you in iraq. if that is all you've got, then you're making this way too easy for me.
