Iran-Elham-Iraq
Government Spokesman Gholam-Hossein Elham here Tuesday hoped that both Saddam and foreign troops will be eliminated from Iraqi people's life.

Speaking to domestic and foreign reporters in this week's press conference, he expressed hope that the just and legal verdict issued on the former Iraqi dictator and the other criminals will be executed to deprive dictators of the opportunity to commit further crimes.

Turning to Saddam Hussein as `anti-human', he said that he is a criminal dictator and that there is no doubt about it.

"The question is what about supporters of Saddam's crimes? The foreign forces in Iraq still continuing the dictators' crimes should compensate for such criminal acts," said the spokesman.

Elham pointed to Saddam's death sentence and said that Iraqi people are making judgment on the issued verdict. He hoped that no pressure will be exerted against execution of the verdict.

He expressed hoped that the losses inflicted on the Iraqi people during Saddam's rule and afterwards will be made up.
