Debating on whether it was oil related seems a bit off. That might have been a background, but more or less, Saddam was a very evil man. Just to get him out of power, where he couldn't hurt people anymore, is a great thing. I have met people that had to leave over there because of him. I'll never forget their faces when they described the destruction Saddam amassed on their people. They were happy that he was executed. If it gave them a better sense of security, it was worth it, because those are just a handful of the people saved.
