Really? This is interesting, because Saddam law might
have ruled it illegal to drive tanks over his statues,
and take pictures of him in his underwear. Current
"law" in Iraq doesnt seem to hold those "rights"
inviolate. Theres a similar issue with Nazi-era
photographs, etc. Does Germany claim Deutchland™ for
anything Fuhrer™?
