Saddam Hussein, killed and maimed his own people. So therefore he was guilty of multiple murder. And was found guilty by a legal Court and sentenced to death.
And members are calling for Bush and Blair, to be tried. For what ?
They joined foces to bring down a dictator. And when he was caught, NOT in a house, NOT in the street. NOT in one of his mansion.
He was found in a DUGOUT, HIDDEN so that he couldn't be found. Put on trial. Found guilty. And sentenced to death.
When this happened, HIS OWN people jumped with jo. Surely, that tells you something.
ALL Countries, have a duty to protect those people across the globe, who cannot defend themselves.
In regards to Hitler, he was killed by one of his own.

Please, what sort of legal, legitimate court sentences someone to be dragged into a cellar in the middle of the night to a baying, ridiculing crowd to be hung, sounds more like a lynch mob to me and perhaps he did deserve all he got but let's not try and dress it up and try and legitimise it, the way it was done was how he'd have done things, are we or our new found allies no better than that?
Also protecting the Iraqi people was way down the list of rationales for war and was only wheeled out once all the other reasons, wmds, harbouring terrorists, thinking up 9 11 etc etc etc turned out to be bs and that might have been reasonable if he was still a threat to his people or neighbours but guess what he wasn't, had we acted earlier when he was massacring people and starting wars instead of selling him weapons I'd have supported it but all those people who died since gulf war 2 for what, so an old man could be thrown to a lynch mob, so bliar could lord it up on the international stage and pocket fortunes on the back of it or so one man could have a bit of revenge and sod the consequences
