伊拉克前總統薩達姆在10月19日第一次出庭40天之后，28日又在首都巴格達戒備森嚴的“綠區”內的一個法庭第二次出庭接受審判。薩達姆戴銬入庭，怒斥主審法官。

請看外電報道：A combative Saddam Husseinlashed outMonday at his treatment by American "occupiers and invaders" and lectured the chief judge about leadership as his trial resumed in a rambling and unfocused session.

報道中lash out指的是“猛烈抨擊、嚴厲斥責”，常和at連用，表示“對…猛烈抨擊”，例如，The article lashed out at social injustice.（這篇文章對社會上的不公平現象進行了猛烈抨擊。）；It seemed that he was going to lash out at her, but he controlled himself.（他似乎就要斥責她了，但馬上又控制住了自己。）

Lash out 還有“猛擊、猛踢”的意思，如：He lashed out at them with his fists.（他用拳頭猛揍他們。）
