Hussein needs a muzzle

Saddam Hussein has been controlling his trial in an unfortunate way. Today, Hussein proclaimed that he was starting a hunger strike because of his captors’ treatment. Hussein also has interrupted the judge on many occasions; causing the court to enter disorder. This is what I don’t get. This disobedience is intended to rile up the Iraqis against the authenticity of the trial. Why the hell is this allowed? Hussein is notorious for his torture and murderous acts. By complaining about how he is being tortured should not encourage support for Saddam, it should cause the Iraqis to hate him more for denying them trials in the first place. This is what should happen, they should not force Saddam to be present at all, if he wants to defend himself, he should be there by his own will. If he continues to create chaos in court, he should be muzzled. This trial should be carried out, and the Iraqi government should not pander to Hussein in any way.
