[11:49 AM] Noah Feldman 
(see link at the left for some of his interesting background) is a senior advisor for constitutional law to the Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq, and assistant professor of law at NYU. With Saddam’s capture he’s popping up more and more in the media to talk about what a trial of Saddam might look like. He always had very interesting things to say. Check him out on the NPR show "The Connection" this week. One of the most interesting things he brought up in this and other interviews is that U.S. is going to have to come to terms with its support of Saddam all through the late 1970s up until Desert Storm -- the time when many of his crimes were committed. That’s something I haven’t heard many other people talk about, perhaps for fear of being branded a left-wing Berkeley liberal.
