Let's be nitpicky: they suspected that chemical 'ali' had been killed in the bombing of his house.
They did not CONFIRM it :D

We have no right to hold him. The war is over and he's a civilian. We shouldn't question him at all, send him to  Cuba (the democratic part of Cuba to be clear :)), etc.

We'll just take him up North near where are the Kurds live and give him a big, loud, visible "See you around buddy you are FREE OF U.S. CUSTODY" party. Or maybe we'll do that at the Iranian border.

Then we could tell Amnesty (For Terrorists) International that we 'did the right thing' and didn't detain him.

I don't mind at all if US 'violates' some of the so called human right laws with him :D
...after all hes done and hes most certainly guilty of violating most human right laws on multiple occasion, he has no rights to mention.

Wasn't it General W.T. Sherman who said (to paraphrase), "Tis well that war is so terrible, least we grow to love it"?

And yes, this is a far cry from major war operations, thank God.  Nevertheless, any death (other than a terrorists') is one too many.  I've no love for the UN in general, but those people who were injured or killed in that bomb blast earlier this week were trying to help Iraq.  I for one wish the news agencies would remember that there were people from many nations killed or wonded in that attack, not just the head guy from Brazil.  Those behind it, and other attacks and sabotage, are the enemies of a free and sovereign Iraq.  If they want the Coalition and the UN out of their country quicker, cooperation is the way to acheive that.  However, that would leave a stable and democratic Iraq, one where power is shared by all segments of the population.  That would not server the terrorists' ambitions, of course.  Chaos and civil unrest are their main allies.
