If the US is to take blame for Saddam's actions how do you allocate that blame, 50/50, 60/40, 30/70? And if the US is responsible in someway, do you think the people of Iraq, Arabs, Mulims are justified in seeking punishment or revenge against the US?

Revenge is never justifiable. We are to blame in at least some way for Saddam, and thus we should be heald responsible, BUT, terrorism is hardly a legal or moral tool. If we were to be brought to justice, then those who sold weapons to the Iranians and Iraqis during the Iraq/Iran war would be brought up on war crimes. If you're refering to the 3000 people who lost their lives on 9/11...there is no justification for such a horrific action.
