This case is totally different, Ninjaxe. In a normal criminal trial for 1st degree murder the trial may go very quick or it may last years. The trial and sentence would never take 12 years though, most of the time is in stay of executions, competency/representation filings, habeus corpus appeals and appeals for retrial. With Saddam Hussein establishing guilt is easy. America knew what Hussein did. Officials plotted how to put him in power and keep him in power because it was seen as politically useful. Now that he is no longer useful to the people in power and it is better for them to kill him guess what happens? He gets killed.
"Its not personal, Hussein. Strictly business."
