If you built the bridge knowing full well that innocent people would die then yes you are responsible

By this logic every president that has entered into a war is guilty, it is war, innocent people are going to die. It's an unavoidable fact.

I understand if you are just against war, period, but if you somehow expected Bush to fight a war in which no innocent people die, that is where I would take issue with you. I would say it is completely unreasonable to expect such a thing.

I agree. I'm not the one advocating hanging Saddam. All I'm saying is don't pretend that your not a massive hypocrite if you think Saddam should be punished but others shouldn't for doing the very same thing!

Actions not words. Knowingly issued orders for an offensive which meant innocent people would die.

Innocent people die in any war, and you have no way of knowing how many innocent people were saved because of the war.

You have no way of knowing how many innocent people were saved when Saddam had the subversives killed.

Most people Saddam killed were not a threat to anyone other than Saddam, many weren't even a threat to him, his own paranoia led him to kill.

I don't believe you can simplify things to this extent. Your analysis would say the U.S. entrance into WW2 was the same as Saddam's actions.
