Saddam behaving badly

Today, during his trial for human rights violations, Saddam Hussein lost his temper again, threatening not to report to court tomorrow. "I will not return," yelled the former Iraqi dictator, "I will not come to an unjust court!" Yesterday, Saddam behaved equally badly as witnesses were describing a massacre that occurred in 1982 in the town of Dujail as retalliation for an assassination attempt. "Do you want the neck of Saddam Hussein?" he asked defiantly, "Then have it." Saddam's half-brother, Barzan al-Tikriti, has also had angry outbursts during the trial, including one time when he asked the judge, "Why don't you just execute us?" The judge finally cracked down on Saddam when the dictator told him that "When the revolution of the heroic Iraq arrives, you will be held accountable." The judge angrily replied that Saddam's comment was "a provocation of the court."
