There was never any doubt about him being guilty so I don't ever get why a trail was needed in the first place.

I think it was quite important for the families of the victims, at least that was probably the only way they would ever get any kind of reconciliation. To actually bring him to justice and make it clear to him, not so much the rest of the world, what he had done.

As for the people of Iraq, they live their life as they want. They have been doing so for decades so I think they can manage for another few decades or so.

Wrong. There's an on-going war there if you haven't already noticed that. You can't just live life "as you want" then. You live by what you get and the opportunites you are given. And please, don't try and convince me that they are in a position to "create their own opportunities and future". Also, for what it's worth, I don't really believe they've been able to live by those standards for the past decade or so, considering the fact that Saddam brought the entire country down to poverty level and he waged quite a few wars in the Middle east.

It's is NON of our business to tell a country which has been around for MUCH longer then any of us and that specifically goes for the US. The US is 200 years old, the entire middle east has been a populated area for over 2000 years. So like I said, non of our bussiness, let them decide how to lead their own country.

Yeah, none of our business, but I didn't mention anything about the US, so please, try and stay on topic here. That entirely falls out of the current topic frame. This whole thing circles around the prosecution and execution of him. And the point is that they did lead their own trial against him - remember that it was the Iraqi court of law that sentenced him to death, not the US.
