He Sort of Has A Point

Here's a problem with these trials of former dictators, etc. He sort of has a point - the people planning to assassinate Saddam - I mean, what's he supposed to do with them? Let them live freely? If you are a dictator with no legitimate legal means to prosecute those attempting to overthrow you, can you really be at fault for killing them?

Damn those dictators and their turned around, screwy logic.
