I'd say while it it was needed for the Iraqi people it was in ways a bit hypocritical.
Its pretty damn bad publicity and honestly they could've gotten 'em alive. People say they would never surrender - and I say, we have so many means of taking em out w/o killing em that we should've done it. Sounds a bit more like vengeance and propaganda IMO - great ratings in the U.S. +++ war effort ratings woowoo.
Whatever, wahts done is done, but this won't matter much if Saddam is still around.
