Will the U.S. President be arrested and treated like Saddam? Will he stand trial. America has been directly responsible for civilian deaths right from world war I ,the Korean wars, The Vietnam wars, Japan and today in Iraq.

War is under different laws nationally and internationally. Saddam was torturing and killing people he was not at war with (mainly his own people), every example you just sighted with the US president, was a war the US was involved in. This has got to be the most ignorant question I have ever read. And a "large number" what about the large number of civilians killed by the terrorists in the 9-11 attacks, or any other terrorist attack, where there was no war established? How in the world do you justify this line of questioning? If ever there was a war more justified, the war on terror would be it, so would WWI and WWII. Which President was in power when the Korean war and our involvement in Vietnam began? Well that was President Truman (a Democrat). Interesting how that all plays out, especially since the Democrats like think both wars were something the US shouldn't have been involved in.

Lincoln was not arrested and tried for the large number of civilians that were killed in the south during the Civil War. The King of England was not arrested and tried for the large number of civilians that were killed in Hitler's Germany or that were starved to death in Ireland. Stalin was not arrested and tried for the HUGE number of his OWN civilians that he arrested and killed in Russia. Americans are not arrested and tried for the 30,000 children that starve to death in the "third world" each day because you and I don't do what it takes to change the world. We all have blood on our hands. Don't be so quick to judge.

we were not responsible for the deaths in Iraq, read the news dumbnut. people within a crowd fired on US infantry who then returned fire. in addition every world leader would be arrested if every country that ever killed innocents were condemed. Saddam is different because he maliciously kill tens of thousands of innocent civilianst to test chemical weapons.

Bush should feel responsible. The numbers are not as many as Saddam but the US should set the moral high ground.
