Saddam Hussein attends trial in Baghdad December 7, 2006. Saddam appeared at his genocide trial on Wednesday, despite writing to the chief judge to say he would no longer attend court sessions in protest at being repeatedly silenced. Saddam and six others are on trial for the Anfal -- Spoils of War -- military campaign against ethnic Kurds in northern Iraq in the 1980s in which prosecutors say up to 180,000 people were killed in poison gas attacks and mass executions.
