The judge who presided over the trial of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and sentenced him to death was reportedly captured by ISIS insurgents last week. The Daily Mail is
now reporting that Judge Raouf Abdul Rahman has been executed. Judge Rahman had reportedly tried to escape Baghdad dressed in a dancer's uniform. A target had been placed on his head by Sunni Muslims after the botched manner in which Hussein's execution was carried out and videotaped by Shi-ite Muslims. Fearing for his life, Judge Rahman had reportedly filed an asylum claim with Great Britain in 2007, a claim that was denied by the Iraqi High Criminal Court Tribunal.

I guess that judge forgot to tell ISIS that he had absolute immunity for actions committed in his official capacity on the bench?
This is hilarious and a very good lesson for every judge, cop, prosecutor, jailer, CPS worker, regulator, code enforcement officer, etc. When you trample people's rights, they might remember your name if the governing winds change.
If it ever falls apart in America, how many paybacks have our government agents earned?
As this judge found out, one day, you're living in a nice house in a nice neighborhood, with nice cars, that you got from your fat tax-fed salary that you got from screwing over everyone in the country. And the next day, you're a rotting corpse hanging from a gallows that the coup is leaving up for a few days to serve as an example to everyone else.
Gary,
Sorry for the off-topic comment, but this is worth it. What do you know about Agenda 21? I've been wondering why so many kids under about 35 have recently been pushing hard the self-destructive ideas of:
Sustainability
Anti-automobile
High living density
Anti-suburbs
Anti-roads
Anti-streets
Anti-Interstates
Anti-parking lot
Anti-strip mall
Regional taxation
Living within walking range of stores
Living within bicycling range of stores
Forcing everyone into high-density central living districts where the automobile is not used.
Attacking driving with costs and taxes so significant as to prohibit it
Glorifying public transportation and forcing everyone into it
Redefining moral values to glorifying the group over the individual
These are some truly wacky ideas that came from out of nowhere about 12-15 years ago. They arrived with the rise of a truly wussy generation, and I was just attributing the ideas to the most feminized, tender and weak group of youngsters I've ever seen. It's far deeper than that.
Agenda 21 explains it all. (1) It was a product of the 1992 United Nations Rio environmental summit that was called due to a recommendation by the UN in the 1987 publication "Our Common Future. (2)" Note: There are not necessarily Agendas 1-20; Agenda 21 refers to the 21st Century.
Up and down the entire list of those idiotic ideas the "urbanists" are pushing, each and every goofball idea can be found in Agenda 21.
In the United States, a non-governmental organization called International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI) founded in 1990 enrolls cities as members and works to advance pieces of Agenda 21 incrementally through its member cities. (3)
They've hijacked an entire generation, or two, with this Agenda 21 nonsense, and have turned millions of Americans against their own interests, telling them that it's preferable to dump their cars and live in inner-city hellholes than to live in the broad, comfortable, clean suburbs.
A generation, or two, of Americans now finds it moral and virtuous to act “sustainably,” giving a veneer of piety to socialism.
As this relates to Indy, immediately upon election, Ballard created an Office of Sustainability. (4) He's also been tirelessly attacking Indy's streets, tearing out lanes and replacing them with bike lanes, or in the case of North College Avenue, destroying any capacity to widen the street, as he's walled it off with the widest bike lane anyone has ever seen.
All Ballard's attacks on roads, cars and travel are consistent with Agenda 21. Opposition to I-69 is consistent with Agenda 21. That Carmel's very good redesigns of Keystone and Meridian do not continue into Indianapolis as high-speed roads is consistent with Agenda 21.
Given his devotion to Agenda 21, it's probably fair to say that Ballard is just a useful, dimwitted, NWO shill.
Of course, Carmel is fully committed to an alternate plan, the plan that tamed and civilized America’s urban areas from the 1890’s until present, so that suburb appears to be at absolute loggerheads with Indianapolis. We can therefore expect Carmel to continue to outpace Indianapolis, as Agenda 21 only survives through force and not market choice, despite the best efforts at brainwashing the young.

Several people have commented to me about this dead judge story in “private”, so let me just say here that no lawyers are going to tell dead judge jokes on your blog because of the cold winds blowing over free speech after the Ogden sanction. Nevertheless, several friends have suggested to me that Paul may have a short list of judges that he privately wishes dead, and apparently so does just about everybody else in Indiana that’s being honest. I suspect every judge in this state could drop dead tomorrow and it would upset our citizenry very little. I can’t think of another group more reviled and disrespected.
You're mischaracterizing Paul's views, anon. 1:38. Paul's criticism was always directed at the initiation of the charge against him by the disciplinary commission, not judges in general. In fact, no judge ever filed a formal complaint against Paul.
And anon. 10:35, there's nothing hilarious about the judge's execution by ISIS. This was a man born in the Kurdish region of Iraq who lost several of his family members when Hussein used chemical weapons on the people living in that region, an atrocity that could have been prevented by the U.S. government had we taken more care in our previous decades of dealing with him after we helped bring him to power to ensure that he never possessed such weapons.
Anon 10:35, you're twisted.
Gary, if he was that close to the facts of the case, he couldn't have been an impartial adjudicator, and he shouldn't have presided over Saddam's "trial." This is as impartial as our half century practice of handing German soldiers over to the Israeli government.
In a darkly comedic sense, this is hilarious. It demonstrates an absolute failure of necocon nation-building arrogance; it effectively reverses the ruling rendered in the Bush sham trial, and it publicly punctures the aura of judicial personal invincibility.
Nick, you can call it "twisted," but this is exactly how things frequently go down all around the world. Power transitions elsewhere often don't occur in the orderly North American fashion.
This guy wasn't even the original judge. The original judge was showing so much partiality towards Hussein that the U.S. government pressured the Iraqi's to replace him out of concern that prosecution of the case was being compromised. There was no evidence he acted in anything but an impartial manner. The blow up in the case happened when the Shi-ites carried out Hussein's unscheduled execution in a vigilante-like fashion that was recorded and only served to anger the country's Sunni population. The U.S. occupiers permitted that debacle to occur, and then offered little or no protection to the judge when threats started to be made on his life, as well as many other government leaders who were executed in the post-Hussein era.
Anon 11:43:
You're an idiot. Only someone with an IQ less than 25 would be against such things as:
sustainability
living within walking range of stores
living within bicycling range of stores
Are you against apple pie, too?
Rhonda got her Agenda 21 brainwashing down good.
What's the matter, exposing Agenda 21 not good for the IDI folks, thieving TIFs and stealing all the tax dollars for those stupid stack 'em and pack 'em downtown developments?
"Sustainability" showed up around the late 80's when the Soviet Union was on the way down, and the hard left needed a new publicly safe term for Communism.
Act like an American. Spread out. Take your car to the store.
Anon 11:43 introduces a viable topic for specific focus when GW has time.
Agen-damned 21 is a comic book fantasied, one whirled scheme; a dystopian disconnect from natural interests of those beyond a few self styled "elites." One problem is this bilder-burger comes with government cheese; sponsored by networked glow-ball "elites."
Comic Corpse is but one Agen-duh 21 "education" scheme. A broad, future expose would be useful.
Buthaina Neveln for at least the last two years, has been arguing that Saddam Hussein was not an evil man or guilty of most of what he was accused at trial, in fact, was a protector of the people of Iraq. You can listen to her June 22 interview on the Spingola Speaks Showe, re current events in Iraq, and what she refers to as staged propaganda videos.
Pete:
I think Ballard is running Agenda 21, whether or not he knows the name of it.
I think much of downtown Indy's development and the emphasis of downtown Indy over all other areas of the City is Agenda 21. All those stupid bike "trails" painted on the streets is Agenda 21. Turning drive laves into "trails" is Agenda 21. Utterly destroying Broad Ripple Avenue is definitely Agenda 21.
Ballard's war on driving and not making streets a priority is Agenda 21. Letting the streets rot with potholes is consistent with Agenda 21.
