Saddam Hussein, now formally charged with crimes against humanity, is now faced with charges by irate tie makers.
“This man is guilty of killing the tie business,” a representative of the plaintiffs stated immediately after his arrival from New York’s garment district. “And the evidence is right before your eyes. Every day he shows up in court wearing a white shirt without a tie.”
Mr. Hussein defended his actions, saying, “It’s perfectly understandable why I avoid ties. I don’t want to feel anything tight around my neck, at least, until I don’t have a choice. Meanwhile, I have every right to hang loose.”
