    It's a much bigger issue than 'he was guilty of crimes, should he or should he not have been killed". It's the fact that the West thinks itself superior enough to kill him. We had no right to go into Iraq in the first place; its 'humanitarian' grounds were a crock, and this is just another (sick) way of Bush and Blair proving that they 'really honestly do care' about humanitarian issues. He was tried in an Iraqi court in the loosest sense of the word. Maybe the jurors were Iraqi but it was the Americans who really took him to trial.

    What next - do we have the right to overstep state sovereignty in every country where there are human rights abuses and kill everyone we think is behaving badly?

    You say it like it's a new phenomenon.
