It should've happened after the first Gulf War, in my opinion. If left alive the new government wouldn't be strong enough to fight him and so he would be back in power in a matter of time, so he had to go. That said, if he went after the first Gulf War when the region was on the US's side there would have been less international fallout from the power vacuum.
