Does it depend who is murdering who?

Saddam Hussein has been sentenced to death for 'crimes against humanity' for his responsibility in the killing of 148 people at Dujail in 1982. Sentenced to death, ostensibly, by a jury of his peers set up by a Government created and supported by the United States and Britain.



But hang on a minute. In order to get this man to trial did not the aforementioned United States, with Britain's backing, kill something in the order of between 100,000 and 600, 000 Iraqi citizens, many of them innocent women and children? Many of these deaths came from the much vaunted 'shock and awe' tactics organised by Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld at the behest of the evil Bush.

So when are Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld and Blair going to appear before a world court and justify their actions in killing possibly half a million innocent people? Oh they're not! I see so its like Nuremberg. You are only a heartless evil monster when you are on the other side!
