"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest for freedom, go home and leave us in peace. We seek not your council nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Saddam is threatening to behead any 'invaders':

"There is no flexibility on the issues of dignity and destiny and handling the vital interests of the country," Foreign Minister Naji Sabri said on Monday. "We will cut the head off anyone who raises a hand to our borders."

Where is Kofi's concern for the treatment of (potential) prisoners of war? When it comes to 'fighters' who by any defenition cannot be seen as anything but unlawful combatants, the UN and EU are very distaught over the treatment of Guantanamo prisoners. Iraq threatens to start beheading anyone who 'raises a hand toward' their border and silence ensues.
