BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- Saddam Hussein's attorneys will ask an Iraqi tribunal Monday for permission to add former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark to the courtroom defense team.

A U.S. official close to the Iraqi High Tribunal said there have been no motions made by Hussein's attorney to have an international lawyer work on the defense team. But the official said that if the proper motion for that was filed it would probably be accepted.

Some of the lawyers that were seduled to defend have already been shot of were victims of car bombings according to a breaf news report I saw a month or so ago (sorry I have not links for that story anymore).

The need to move that trial out of Iraq and into a safe and sane international courtroom environment.

I think Ramsey Clark is a bit of a nut. His presence will probably serve only to further crank up the polemics level.

I wouldn't wish Ramsey Clark on anyone. Perhaps even Saddam.

has anyone in this country ever heard of TREASON? yes this would be treason. is this attorney out of his mind or what??? Or maybe he is a money hungry politician? Maybe he took this job so he could be in the headlines, and then afterwards when we make him look like a coward he is going to write a book about life defending sadaam hussein, and probably make millions
