Was it the right course of action or the wrong one - I doubt I'll ever really be able to make my mind up n that one - but it's the one that the world is stuck with so I just hope that enough work will go into making it the right thing to have done... in the end.

I sincerely doubt that it's all going to come up roses now though. Generally people are just too damn lazy and opt for the easiest and most emotionally distant option.

For example, I think the death penalty would have been given less credence by his prosecutors (and many others who were veahmently calling for it) if it was on the understanding that they would actually be the ones doing the executing.
Sadly though there are always those who are eager to kill - again, human nature at its basest.

2 sides to this argument. The people trafficking existed because of the EU and the rest sounds just like any other country in Europe - so they should fit right in.

You are feeling sleepy

Defiant in life, dignified in death.

An eye for an eye? All that will do is make people blind!

Romania was ruled by a tyrant who squandered the countries capital on lavish holidays and buildings while the people worked hard and were starving if they didnt.

Was it a mistake to make Saddam a martyr? You bet it was

Really, & what is your source for this piece of information ?

Gotta say that there was no man more deserving.

Prob won't make a jot a difference but this ain't time for common sense.

But the point has been made...if the West don't like you then you hang.
