I don't doubt it, but you still can't really get past all else that he has done. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that the Halabja massacre is something to sneeze it, I'm really not, but I have heard countless things he has done to also point him out as evil. Such as using women and children as human shields, torturing whole families with electroshock therapy for months just because a little girl wrote something negative about him in her notebook at school.
For Saddam, do not condemn him on just one thing he has done alone, condemn him on all of his actions as a whole. Either way, the guy is going to the gallows.
