Iraq to Get Legal Custody of Hussein Wed.

Well, it looks like the Iraqis will officially be taking control of Saddam.

Saddam Hussein (news - web sites) will be transferred to Iraqi legal custody and face charges in an Iraqi court this week — but he won't go on trial for months and he will stay in a U.S.-run jail because the country doesn't have a suitable prison, the prime minister said Tuesday.

Unfortunately, I'm sure he'll be treated better than the Italians treated Mussolini.
