Now I've Heard it All

Saddam Hussein's chief lawyer said Thursday that the deposed Iraqi president wants President Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair tried on allegations of committing war crimes.

Khalil al-Dulaimi said Saddam wants to sue both leaders, along with Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, for allegedly authorizing the use of weapons such as depleted uranium artillery shells, white phosphorous, napalm and cluster bombs against Iraqis.
I just bet he does.

Of course, Saddam himself is currently on trial for killing Iraqis.

Saddam, his half brother Barzan Ibrahim and six other defendants are on trial in the 1982 killing of more than 140 Shiite Muslims after an attempt on Saddam's life in the northern town of Dujail. They could face death by hanging if convicted.
And that's just a drop in the bucket. Then you get this nonsense:

Saddam also wants all Iraqis who have had relatives killed or had property damaged should receive at least $500,000 each.
I bet he wants $1,000,000 for Uday and Qusay, too.
