*sorry, the following came from a small burst of anger when i relooked at your post with 'right here Saddam' and flipping him off*
Saddam's atrocities were fairly unexceptional compared to many of the 20th century's tyrants, many of whom were supported and given carte blanche on their own people's lives. Saddam committed his worst crimes while he was a US ally and so nobody gave it a second thought. But now that he's been chosen as American public enemy #2 everyone gets such satisfaction that he's getting what he deserves. All I can really say is "you fucking sheep".
