VATICAN CITY (AP) - A top Vatican cardinal said Tuesday he felt compassion for Saddam Hussein after seeing video pictures in which, the prelate claimed, American forces treated the captured Iraqi leader "like a cow."
In the first Vatican comment on Saddam's capture, Renato Cardinal Martino said Saddam should face trial, but he stressed the church's opposition to the death penalty. He told reporters the Vatican hoped Saddam's arrest would "contribute to the pacification and the democratization of Iraq."
I must have missed the news the day the Vatican spoke up about the Kurds that were gassed to death or the compassion they felt for the prisoners that were tied to posts and had Saddam's henchman walk along and put a bullet into their heads.
One word....disgusting!
