I think this is a little bit of blaming the jury for sentencing the criminal. Yeah, I think this is bad taste, because, wow, that's really placing an awful lot on her shoulders, that because she was involved she is thus morally responsible for the consequences, as though the UNSC had no part in it. IMO the Ba'athists themselves are entirely responsible for the consequences of the sanctions for creating the conditions that forced the sanctions.
