Do you think Saddam Hussein had the same right to use WMD to save the
lives of Iraqi servicemen while fighting Iran and internal rebellion?
Did Al-Qaeda have the same right to deliberately target civilians in their
war with the USA, specifically WTC?

If Saddam hadn't invaded Iran there would not have been a need to defend "Iraqi
servicemen."

As for the attacks on the WTC there was no military value there. An argument
could be made for the strike on the Pentagon being a military attack.

Nagasaki and Hiroshima each had valid military targets within the cities.

In short it is my opinion you made a rather poor analogy.
