Boo Freakin' hoo

Seems that Sunni Iraqis are upset that Saddam's brother's head popped off. Gruesome yes, and yes Saddam's hanging was botched too, but it couldn't have happened to a nicer guys. Besides, where exactly was all this outrage when these same folks who are mad now were literally dancing in the streets over videos of infidels getting beheaded on purpose? I guess if these newly outraged had any morals or introspective qualities they would conclude that either what was good for the goose is good for the gander....or...more hopefully they could make the moral distinction between executing a murderous tyrant and glorifying the unwarranted killing of innocent ordinary people. I guess that little bit of self-awareness would be way too inconvenient for them to grasp, so let's stick to situat...er sectarian ethics.
