I'm curious where you draw the line? I don't mean to be inflammatory, but I'm honestly curious. Are the following things ok?

- Burning the enemy to death using flaming gel to clear a bridge approach
- Using sarin nerve gas to kill the enemy? Using it in a mixed area with civilians in it?
- Using anthrax to eliminate the enemy.
- Assasinating the enemy leaders? The leader's family?
- Feeding enemies through plastic shredders in front of their children?
- Forcing the children of an enemy to shoot their parents?
- Passing prisoners of war off to countries that allow torture in order to get confessions
- Imprisoning citizens for years without access to lawyers or family

Remember, we got into this war because Hussein was a "bad guy".
Other than the first example, which of those is relevant to the US action against Iraq?
