Note to Assassins: You're Not Helping

Someone, or some group more likely, has taken to offing lawyers engaged in the defense of Saddam Hussein’s co-defendants.  Maybe they’re just really confused about how this whole “trial” thing works, or maybe in an attempt to understand the west they’ve taken to reading Shakespeare ("The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers."- William Shakespeare, "Henry VI", Part IV).  Whatever the case, it needs to stop, through better security probably, so the Iraqi’s can have a trial that on the surface at least looks fair (and probably actually will be, Saddam had that whole crimes against humanity thing down pretty well), after which the former dictator can be promptly executed.
