no where in my question did i say that the USA or any other particular country should carry out the arrests, trials, and executions of murderous leaders, If people would only read things through they would see that i am saying that EACH country that has a murdering leader should conduct their own arrests, etc...

And when the majority of the world said that Bush was the biggest war criminal and killer would you support it? Or are we just talking about "other people's" leaders? The U.S. has supported right-wing dictatorships for more than 100 years. Just look at Latin America. Half of U.S. foreign aid goes to countries that are not democracies and most of it goes to countries with horrible human rights records.

Well as much as this notion seems "fair and just", it is politically impossible.
Whether is it the U.N, the I.C.J, IGOs or other NGOs, they have their "balls" squeezed by the bigboys (especially the Aamericans). The very fact that US can invade another sovereign nation unilaterally (the 2003 Iraq War) is an outright demonstration to the world that they can pretty much do what they want.
How I look at it is, with :
1) More money
2) More political influences
3) More military might
4) More people
You win. Period.
You can argue until the cows come home but even the U.N Security Council lacks bite during the 2003 episode. It will be the same for the Russians, the Chinese and the other superpower European nations when a similar situation arises.

I hope what I say right here and right now will end this pity for Saddam. The IRAQI people choose to execute SADDAM. FURTHER, to make him a martyr is a HUGE mistake. The man was no saint. Saddam choose his path. "HE WHO LIVES BY THE SWORD DIES BY THE SWORD". Be careful....words are powerful, why don't you study on all the things that Saddam did during his career and see what you really think of him after wards?

Oh, wouldn't it be great if all the murderers would be murdered by new murderers, who would then get murdered for murdering murderers whose murders might have murdered murderers who murdered someone?
What a world. Glad to be in it.
Sheesh...

I love you question but we all know that we cannot go after all these people.
Even Bush isnt dumb enough to start WW3 (I hope so anyways).
We cannot back down from terror. All we are doing is fighting back those who have greatly wrong us.

Why not just hold kangaroo illegal tribunals on all the world's leaders. You know they must all responsible for the death and oppression of some group or another in their country. If you give Bushie boy some new weapons he will get rid of them all-- for control of his Neocon global economy.

Tom T. Hall said it best, "If we hang them all we get the guilty."
By the way, those are actual song lyrics.

I agree with you. No leader should be able to murder innocent people.
