Sure Saddam was responsable for Mass deaths, but so are many of the worlds leaders in one form or another, even in our own country.
Remember Tasmania 1804:
Makes you wonder just how little we have developed as a humans when we still feel the need to kill others regardless of what the reason.
Everyone blames religion as the problem. Maybe people need to face reality, if man was created in God's image then maybe we are the god's. After all we seems to be able to decide who and what lives and dies on our planet.
For those who believe in a eye for an eye. Stop and ask yourself when does that way of thinking stop. eg, You kill my brother so I kill yours, Then you kill ....... so on and so on, sounds a little too familiar to me, like perhaps the cause for the constant war. In short there is no answer.
Killing the guy was wrong, for 2 reasons. Does he fell remorse for what he did? NO, he feels nothing nor will he ever again. Will it truely make a difference if he lived or died? They hung the Nazis they rounded up responsable for mass murders too, hasn't stopped people being Nazi's.
Funny how with most mass murderers we try to study them for an insight into what makes them tick, to do that they need to be alive. To hide information that someone has that can harm those in power, thats easy "Dead people dont tell lies!!"
