I think you will find hatred, tribal and personal would have been the motivation in their deaths. The Arabs are like that.
I was talking about the west arranging for Saddam to be hung for the crime of genocide. The US and Nato can also hold some responsibility for Gaddafi's death even though the rebels did the deed.
What about that old warlord Ariel Sharon? Was he ever brought to justice? As I said punishment is only selective depending on a nation's (state, city, town, community etc.) resources.

Not here to discuss history with you mantra, just the topic.
I don't believe the US were behind the decision to hang Hussein. In fact I remember then speaking out against it on several occasions. Nor are the US and Nato responsible for Gaddafi's death.
