It is enough to make one question the right to free speech, freedom of expression, etc.

Now, I love the ability in our civilization to be able to express one's self freely, but I have to stop and question what is going too far? A game, who's central plot is the killing of a real world person seems to me to be disgusting. Now I feel the same way if it is Bush or Saddam Hussein.

I have no issue with them making games where the US Army, or the Israeli army are the enemy, that is no different then our games that paint them as the enemy (even if we feel it is justified in our case).. but a game where the point is to assassinate a world leader? too far.

(And I know, I spoke out for "A Death of a President", but I feel that is different, that's a movie, who's central plot is the fallout of an assassination, rather than the glorified killing of the president at the user's hands...)

That is just too far over the edge for my comfort zone.
