VERY VERY GLAD it will happen soon, not just for the sake of long-delayed justice, but in the anticipation of monitoring what might be a very SURPRISING reaction to this event: There will be a finality to it, and an unprecedented kind of recognition that even a Jihadist would have to accept: America brought about the conditions to make it possible for the Iraqi people to take care of this cancer once and for all. The government of Iraq, flawed as it is, will carry out this act. I think the death of Saddam, virtually unprecedented in the Middle East (except by assassin's bullets) will have an impact that will register quickly and just as quickly attain critical mass---its impact will be enormous.
This is sends a very strong message to Achmed Lunchbucket. This is the way kings are handled in the ME. He got off lucky since most Babylon kings were killed in far more torturous methods. This may turn the corner for Iraq.
