@hawkeye10,
Let me get this right a man charge with misusing the power of the state to kill thousands of his fellow citizens should not in fact face a court of law for his crimes.
First because of his medical conditions and under the very strange theory that other men in similar positions would try to hold onto power less if he was given a free pass for his crimes!!!!!!!
Sorry I do not buy into your theory that a man such as Gadhafi will give up power more easily if Mubarak is given a free pass and somehow I can not feel sorry for a man who order his fellow citizens men women and perhaps children kill in the streets so he could try to maintain power.
You might had mild grounds for complains it they just hung the man instead of bringing him into a court of law.
