I'm going to optimize this statement here by saying the Iraqi's have every right to be the ones to judge him for crimes, but at the same time, I don't think he actually committed any crimes as a dictator since, by very definition, dictators are allowed to do what they want to/with the country they govern. He did perform a coup on the Republic, but because he succeeded, that means it wasn't really a crime. And the fact that the Iraqi people eventually, albeit reluctantly, accepted his presence solidified his rule as such.
This isn't to say that Saddam's not a dick--Because he certainly is.
