Well, if most of the Iraqi people think this was the way to go, who am I to object? I've never lived under brutal, violent oppression nor had my friends and relatives wiped out, so I could never claim to be able to imagine how great many citizens over there felt.

Saddam was beyond doubt guilty of great many severe things, there's no question of that. If his own people deemed the offences grave enough to execute him, then it was justice by their standards. For my own part I don't really support death penalties, but that's only how I feel it should be in the EU. Other places must live according to their own traditional and established ideals.
