Remember that Bush buddy/friend of America, Moamer Kadhafi? Well, he's not so friendly anymore (if he ever was?).
Kadhafi says Saddam still legitimate Iraqi leader, government illegal
ROME (AFP)--Libyan leader Moamer Kadhafi said Saddam Hussein should still be considered Iraq's legal president and the current government illegitimate as it was elected under an occupation regime.
In an interview with the Italian Sky TG24 television channel, he slammed the practice of sending in troops to get rid of heads of state, saying that by that theory he could be next.
And the beat goes on.
Kadhafi said that "Saddam Hussein cannot be tried because he is a prisoner of war and under the Geneva Convention should be released at the end of hostilities.
Saddam is still to be considered the legal president of Iraq because he was not overthrown by the people but by the occupation forces.
It is dangerous to send troops to eliminate heads of state who are not appreciated, because tomorrow it could be the turn of Castro, Kadhafi or Mugabe, or even China and North Korea," he said, referring to Cuban President Fidel Castro and Zimbabwe's Robert Mugabe.
Word of advice here, Moamer:
You just spoke out against "the man" (Bush White House), and bad things happen to those who do this. I would beef up that security a bit and be looking over your back for awhile, if I were you.
