' ·av HAMZA HENDAWI • ASSOCIATED PRESS WRITER .BAGHDAD, Iraq - The fi.rst witnesses in the Saddam Hussein trial offered chilling ac.counts Monday of killings and torture using electric shocks and a grinder during a I 9'82 crackdown against Shiites, as the defiant expresident threa1ened the JUdge and tried to intimidate a.survivor. One witness said he saw a machine that "looked like a grinder" with hair and blood on it in a secret police center if) Baghdad where he and others were tortured for 70 days. He said det~inee s were kept in "Hall 63." But defense lawyers questioned the reliability of witnesses who were only IS and 10 at the time and walked out . of the tumultuous session when the judge refused to :•llow former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark to address the . court on Saddam 's behalf. They returned after the judge n!lented. 'Throughout the dayl,ong session, Chief Judge Rizgar Mohammed Amin struggled to· maintain order .among boisterous defense outbursts. Suddam ancl his co-defendant and half brother, Barazan Ibrahim, gestured and shouted together, "Long live lraq 1" "Everyone must remain ca1m and be civil," Amin said repeatedly. Saddam and his seven co· defendants could be hanged if convicted on charges stemming from the deaths of more than 140 Shiites in the town of Dujail after an assassination attempt in 1982. "I am not afraid of execu· tipn." Saddam proclaimed at one point. "Why don't you just execute us and get rid of all of this," Ibrahim shouted at the judge. The trial's first witness, Ahmed Hassan Mohammed, delivered a rambling, nearly two·hour account of the events in Dujail in retaliation for an armed attack on Saddam 's convoy. Mohammed recalled how AP Photo Ahmad Hassan Mohammed AI Dujaili cries while testifying in open court during the trial of fol' mer Iraqi president Saddam Hussein in Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone, Monday. The Iraqi High Tribunal convened Monday for a third sess1on of the trial of Saddam and seven co~ defendants, accused in' the 1982 ki lling of more than 140 Shiites af(er .an assassination attempt against the president in Dujail. security agents rounded up townspeople of all ages, from 14 to more than 70. "There were mass arrests. Women and men. Even if a child was 1-day-old, they used to tell his parents. ' Bring him with you,"' Mohammed said, He said the agents took him and the others to the intelligence headquarters in Baghdad. where they were tortured before being trans- ferred to Abu Ghraib prison. Mohammed said his brother, who was at 17 at the time, was toi;{ured while his 77year-old father watched. Interrogators threatened to rape the prisoners' daughters and sisters if the men did not sign confessions, he said. "Some men just said 'I will sign anything but leave my sisters alone,"' he said. Mohammed, who was IS at the time, said he himself was tortured. 'They blindfolded me, but I was so young, it kept falling." At the Baghdad detention center, he . saw "a machine that looked like a grinder and had some blood and hair" oil it, and "I saw bodies of people from Dujail.' ~ The witness exchanged insults with Ibrahim , Saddam's half brother, telling him "you killed a 14-year-old boy." · "Go to hell," replied Ibrahim, who was intelligence chief at the time. "You and your children go to hell," the witness replied. The judge then asked them to avoid such exchanges. As the testimony continued, Saddam's lawyers objected that someone in the visitors' gallery was making threatening gestures and should be removed. Ibrahim leaped to his feet,. spat in the direction of the gallery,. and shouted, ''These are criminals." The judge ordered the person removed from the gallery. Mohammed, fighting back tears, des.cribed how there had been "random arrests in the streets, all the forces of the (Baath.) party, and Thursday became 'Judgment Day' and Dujail has become a battle front." "Shootings started and nobody could leave or enter Dujail. At night, intelligence agents arrived headed by Barazan" Ibrahim, he said. Ibrahim interrupted him: "I am a patriot and I was the head of the intelligence service of Iraq." But Ibrahim also contested Mohammed's testimony, insisting there was no "Hall 63" and no place in the intelligence building large enough to accomll)odate as many prisoners as the witness said were there. The second witness, Jawad Abdul-Aziz Jawad, who was only 10 when the assassination attempt occurred, testified that Iraqi helicopters . attacked the town and used bulldozers to destroy the fields and orchards. Jawad said Sad dam's regime killed three of his brothers, · one before the assassination attempt and two afterward. Saddam's chief attorney, Khalil al -Dulaimi challenged the testimony, asking how a 10-year-old could remember such details. "A 3-year-old child remembers . a lot," Jawad replied.

President Bush said Monday that American companies must honor promises to their rer,ired .workers, and he urged Congress to pass tough legislation ·so retirees don't see their pension checks slashed. "In our society, we've had some companies - big com• panies - go bankmpt, and workers at those companies know what I' m talking about," Bush said. "And so my message to corporate America is' You need to fulfill your promises.'' With millions · of baby boomers approaching retirement age, there is growing anxiety about the security of workers' pensions and the prospect that taxpayers will get stuck with a massive bill for bailing out failed pension funds in the airline and steel industries. · Automakers say that they, too, are being hammered by higli labor, pension and health care costs. Bush sought to relieve ecooomic anxieties in a speec~ at a: Deere-Hitachi Construction ~achinery plant near Greensboro, where workers gave him a warm reception. · "This economy is strong, · and the best days :u:e yet to come for the American economy," said Bush, facing low poll ratings on his handling of the economy despite positive, upward trends. The administration is fmstrated that the pessimism has not been dispelled by good economic news. Bush said nearly 4.5 million new jobs have been added since May 2003, includ.ing 2 IS..OOO in November. "You know, throughout the last century, we often heard pessimists telling us that our best days are behind us, and that the future belongs to others," Bush said. . He Jed an unsuccessful campaign this year to .remake the Social Security retirement program through creation of personal accounts. However, legislation failed to reach the floor of either the House or the Senate because of near-unanimous Democratic opposition and polls showing voter unhappiness with the president's plan .

It's best not to cut rose canes during late or mid fall, Lowery said, suggesting that when the ·cold weather arrives is the time to move roses if that is planned. "Prune the canes back to a foot or so, and dig up the plant to include as much of the root sys· tern as possible. Move the entire root ball to the new area, Plant as usual and cove the entire plant with soil. By the time you uncover your roses in the spring the transplanted rose will have been working for some time to nuike new roots. Many rose insects and disease can over winter on rose plants and on debris in rosebuds. Make sure your plants are insect and mite free, and all leaves and other material around the roses is cleaned up well before applying your winter protection. Some people use di11 to cover roses, others heavy amounts of shredded paper, but never use dense· plastic to bed down rose. "The Cutting Edge'' was the theme of a program on pmning given by Rice. Pmning means individually selecting and cutting specific branches or twigs. and according to Rice pmning should only bC done if the plant is dead, diseased, damaged or has insect-injured parts. Pmning should also be done if the plant is dense and needs opened up for light and air !1ow, · rejuvenation, or shaped, and dead flower clusters should be removed. However, before pmning, Rice said to be sure to consider the properties of the plant. "Look at it's natural fonn, growth habits, growth rate height. spread and flowering time," she said. ' She talked about three pruning methods, rejuvenation, thin- ning, and heading back. Rejuvenation is the most severe method and is used mostly on older plants that have grown too large woody. This involves removing all the old plant mate· rial just leaving the new stems Thinning is the best method tor any dense plant by cutting the inward growing twigs. lcaving the remaining growth to fill in the outside of the plant. Heading Back i> a method which reduces the.height of the plant or the size. Shrubs that flower in the spring should be pmned after the blooms are gone. Plants that flower in mid-summer should be pruned before the growth stans. Without the plants foliage the problem parts of the plants are easily seen. The .hint at the meeting pertained to reviving an ailing house plant by adding two elderly. and those who arc sick and disabled.

Betty Lowery talked about winter care for roses. She said that regardless of the climite . roses need to rest during the winter. In waim climates they should be forced into dormancy, but in areas where the climate is cold, they need to be protected from the winter \veather. "So how you handle your roses depends on where you live," said Lowery. She explained that where winters are cold and there are extended period of below-freezing ten~peratures, roses are very vulnerable.

Earlier, Mohammed said he was told that Saddam · asked a I5-year-old boy if he knew who he was. "He said 'Saddam'. Then Saddam hit him in the head with an ash tray." . The testimony drew an angry re sponse ·from Saddam, who suggested that Mohammed needed psychiatric treatment and accused the court of bowing to American pressure . "When the revolution of the heroic Iraq arrives, you will be held accountable," Saddam warned the chief judge. "This is an insult to the court," Amin responded. "We are searching for the truth." Saddam told Amin he hoped "that you will endure my frankness." "How can a judge like yourself ·accept a situation like this?" Saddam asked. "This game must not continue. If you want Saddam Hussein's neck, you can have it. I have exercised my constitutional prerogatives after I had been the target of an armed attack. When Mohammed objected to some of Saddam's remarks, the former president snapped: "Do not interrupt · me, son." "If it's ever established that Saddam Hussei n laid a hand on any Iraqi, then everything that witness said is correct," he said. Bush seeks to dispel pessimism .about the economy .

In light of the climbing toll of U.S. casualties, that view is an understandable one. But some polls ask a related question that suggests another view. One poll, conducted last month by the bipartisan RT Strategies, asked Americans if the immediate withdrawal of U.S. forces in Iraq would · help or hurt troop morale. A · stunning 70 percent said a : precipitous withdrawal of U.S. forces would hurt morale over there while !.4 percent said it would help. This strongly suggests that Americans want to finish .. what we've started, that they want to give the Iraqi government every chance to show they're capable of taking •over thei.r own security.. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice thinks that day will come "fairly soon." We've counted the Iraqis people out too many times, on! y to see them face dowp the terrorists in .election after election to ac)lie.ve representative government. That 's reason enough to be optimistic about the challenge we face there just as the · Iraqis are poised to hold the , most important election in ' their country's history. Patriot Act needs to ·be.squashed With parts of the Patriot Act required to be reauthorized by Dec. 31, the Bush administration pushed hard to get it done before Thanksgiving recess. But a House-Senate conference committee draft report has been blocked by a coalition of Republica·n and Democratic senators who have pledged to stop a reauthorization conference bill unless significant changes are made when Congress reconvenes on Dec. 16. Dec. 15 is Bill of Rights Day, celebrating the first I 0 amendments to the Constitution, without which 'our founding document would not have become the law of the land. I congratulate the patriotic resisters - in and out of the Senate - for not allowing the administration to retain sections of the Patriot Act which 399 towns and citie.s across the country, and seven state legislatures, had told their representatives in Congress to change in compliance with the Bill of Rights. Begun in Northampton, Mass., in November. 2001, the Bill of Rights Defense Committee, led by Nancy Talanian, has been instrumental in the national orga. nizing of these re.1olutions to Congress - through a subsequent alliance with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and a range of conservative libertarian organizations. Currently among those insisting on essential Patriot Act reforms are the · American Conservative Union, the . :' . Nat Hentoff American Library Association, and such business 'groups as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce ·and the National Association of Manufacturers. These business organizalions have joined with civil libertarians to focus on the Patriot Act's sweeping expansion of government powers to obtain a huge range of personal information by claiming only that the records are "re levant to an authorized investigation" on terrorism. . In an Oct. 14 letter to Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Arlen Specter, R· Penn., the O:S. Chamber of Commerce and other business groups urged reforms to provisions of the Patriot Act "which allow 1he federal government to require · voluminous and often sensitive records from American .businesses, without judicial oversight or other meaningful checks on the government 's power." Not. only are business records involved in this wholesale invasion of Americans' privacy. Many of the callers for substantive changes in the Patriot Act are focusing on its ex pansian of National Security Letters. which allow the FBI to demand a huge range of records financial. Internet, college and university files, telephone calls. and much more, all without judicial supervision. This data is then put into FBI cjatabanks to be shared with other government agencies. Moreover, as Barton Gellman reported in the Nov. 6 Washington Post Secret ("The FBI's Scrutiny: In Hunt for Terrorists Bureau Examines . Records of Ordinary Americans"), "Senior FBI officials acknowledged ·in interviews that the proliferation of national security letters result s from the bureau's authority to collect intimate facts about people who are not suspected of any wrongdoing ... "Casual or unwitting contact with a suspect (allegedly connected to terrorism) - a single telephone call, for example ·- may attract the attention of investigators and subject a person . to scrutiny about which he never learns." )\s an editorial in the Fort Wayne , Ind ., Journal Gazette said to its readers, and to Congress, on Nov. 9: "The fear of government snooping in the electronic lives of Americans isn' t just coming from the left ... the Justice Department has mi sleadingly touted the fact that there has been no substantiated complaint that the act • . was misused." llut, for one example. si nce another part of the Patriot Act,. section 215, allows the FBI to search a person's library-use records without notifying the person - and indeed makes it a · crime for anybody to report ' the FBI conducted the search - how can any know how to file a com-. plaint ? I salute the senators who insist on these and other ·vital changes in the Patriot. Act: Republicans Larry Craig (Idaho), John Sununu (New Hampshire) , Lisa Murkow ski (Alaska); and Democrats Dick Durbin (Illinoi s). .Russ Feingold (Wisconsin) and Ken Salazar (Colorado). Also, Sen. Arlen Specter, who refused to sign the conference committee report. To their colleagues in both houses,' J· recommend advice from Alexander Hamilton (Federalist No.8): The co ntinual .effort and alarm attendant on a state of continual danger will compel nations the most attached to liberty, to resort · for repose and security to institutions which have a tendency to destroy their civil and political rights. To be more safe. they, at length become willing to run the risk to be less free." · . To re spect our Bill of Rights, it is up to Congress - th at represents we: the people - to prevent this happen ing to us.

Ah:C~iA Sn'l~',mi (UMS) Everybody loves the gift of money. But now people are getting full sheets of real money and it !eels like winning the Lottery. And here's how everybody wins. For the next 48 hours, fulltmcut sheets of real money are being given up, not to banks, not to dealers and not just to the 1ich and famous, but directly to the general·publir. "We're bracing for all the calls. Please tell everyone to just keep trying. With only 48 hours we're doing our best to make damn sure everybody gets through," promised Stephen Speakman, N,ationa! Director of Hotline Operations. At precisely 10:00 a.m. today, the National Hotline first opens. Those whose last name begins with A-N are given a special number to call and those with last names beginning with 0-Z will have their own special number to call. "The money is being handed over on a first come fU'St served basis," Speakman said. The National hotlines will only stay open for 48 hours to distribute the valuable sheets of real money through this special arrangement. But after midnight tomorrow, callers will be turned away. Those who get in on this tiOW will be the really smart ones. JtL~t think what they could be worth years from now. ''Values of currency always·nuctuate. It's difficult when you are comparing apples to oranges, but according to the Official Standard Guide to U.S. Paper Money which provides the guide of valuations, some uncirculated 1928 "one dollar bills have increased in value by over 6;400%. In fact, a full uncut dozen of 1928 dollar bills sold for $18,400.00," Speakman said. · "You would expect to see uncut money sheets ·on display in the Oval Office or under guard at the Srniths~nian," he said. · · Until now, only .those lucky enough to be ''in the know" online could get their hands on uncut . sheets of real money at the Bureau of Engraving · offices in Washington. In fact, banks don't even have them. But now you can get them direct by_ calling the hotline number. ''You can actually spend it. It's real money. But anyone would be an absolute fool to cash them in because they're worth so much more," Speakman confinned. There's going to be a lot of excited people when they unwrap these valuable full sheets of . money this Christmas. It's a ton of money when you see the full Banker's Stack of all four sheets. ' "These sheets of money muke it so easy to take care of everyone on your gift list all at once without having to waste your time shopping. You can take care of parents, grandparents, children, . grandchildren, clerg); co-workers, friends, the mailman and even the hardest person to buy for. They will all be so impressed," Speakman said. Once they get them th.ey'll try to get more :but it may. be too late. When they're gone, :they're gone. That's why the next 48 hours are so critical. It is important that the general public follow the local time clocks and call the assigned Toll Free numbers below to beat the deadline. So, on your mark, get set, go.
