did he gas them personally? if not the same can be applied to any US president for the matter of killing civilians at home or abroad. and im sure the people he tortured or allegedly tortured were of a different religious sect of islam.

also should one of our presidents be tried for allowing or encouraging saddam to invade Kuwait in the 80's
