The hypocrisy is incredible, a killing is a killing - Bin Laden and Yassin are similar people, except Yassin has killed a lot more people of course.

Actually I had read that at one point, Israeli Hassad agents were in position to take out Saddam (as in all they had to do was pull the trigger) near the time of desert storm. Israel had checked with the US before taking action, and the US had asked them to back down. Interesting little bit of info, I'm not sure if its true, but I'll do some digging on it.
