I think having the old coot rot away in prison for the next 20 years would be better for all involved. Even for those hell bent on "revenge". At least he wouldn't turn into a martyr, and instead would turn into a doddering old fool sitting in a jail cell to the end of his days. Keep away his precious hair-dye and show him on TV every 6 months or so.

Exactly. When Hussein dies, a martyr is made, and thus violence in his name.
But on the other hand, it puts an end to a chapter that i'm sure a lot of iraqis think will be re-opened (Saddam being back in power). So it has its ups and downs, but won't solve anything in regards to the violence in Iraq, nor will it lead to a US victory or withdrawl.
I wonder if they'll play this when they walk to the gallows?
