CNNI back to normal

Well, CNNI is covering SH trial, but they are back to normal.
During the breaks, they are busy discussing if the trial is legal (and the newsreader seemed disappointed when the judicial expert said yes and refused to agree with his pointed questions).
And they kept discussing the so called torture in those secret US prisons...
Never pointing out the context, that there is a difference between trying a man for 147 murders of civilians, where so far 345 mass graves of civilians have been dug up, and the interrogating someone who might give information to prevent more killing.

Must have moral equivalence, must bash Bush...
And, the news ticker said that the trial "divided Iraqis"...so the press find their "man on the street" to confirm this LINK...

"Another Sunni, Mohammed Omar, a 35-year-old unemployed father of two, accused the government of being more concerned with convicting Saddam than with fixing the problems Iraqis face every day - violence, shattered infrastructure, unemployment.
"Maybe Saddam did oppress those who opposed him," Omar said. "But for every Iraqi, deep inside, he looks like the strongman we need."

Yup...and Mussolini made the trains run on time....
