"Human Rights Watch" Flacking for Saddam

While there are a few people who doubt that OJ is a killer, can there be anyone in the world who doubts that Saddam killed thousands if not millions. Yet the misnamed "Human Rights Watch" goes to bat for this stone cold killer. This organization gives another taint to the already tainted term "human rights."

Imposing the death penalty, indefensible in any case, is especially wrong after such unfair proceedings,” said Richard Dicker, director of the International Justice Program at Human Rights Watch. “That a judicial decision was first announced by Iraq’s national security advisor underlines the political interference that marred Saddam Hussein’s trial.”

The irrational defending the execrable.
