Saddam has pardoned all prisoners, including political prisoners.

Edit on my above post. According to the TV news. The only ones excluded from pardon were murderers/killers.

Thats nice of him

100% of the vote just means that nobody really had a choice. Or, put another way, one choice is no choice.

Releasing all of those prisoners seems like a tremendously bad idea to me....

You can't lose an election when your name is the only one on the ballot.

As the Royal Canadian Air-Farce put it, the choices in the Iraqi election were:

1. I vote for Saddam
2. I don't want to live

Not what I heard. Murderers were released. But they had to pay restitution within a month or they'd be thrown back in jail.

Now how are they going to catch them in a month?

Probably give them a plane ticket to other countries. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/mad.gif[/img]
