Take Your Own Advice Chirac 

VodkaPundit points out that Germany and France Object to Saddam's Execution:

Baghdad's decision to re-establish the death penalty ahead of the war crimes trial of Saddam Hussein evoked a mixed reaction in Europe, recalling the split across the continent over the war that toppled the Iraqi leader.

Germany and France, two of the most vocal anti-war opponents, strongly stated their opposition -- without exception -- to the death penalty and called on Iraqi authorities to ensure Saddam a fair trial.

Maybe its time for Chirac to take his own advice and mind his own business regarding countries that are out of his purview. If he can say that Bush should keep out of the affairs of Turkey and the EU, what right does Chirac have to say anything regarding the trial of an Iraqi citizen by an Iraqi court?
