I disagree with that. Saddam has been executed for the mass-murder in Dujail in 1982. He has not been convicted for the countless other incidents. So in essence it has not been acknowledged that he was also responsible for other murders. In that sense it might not bring closure for the relatives of the victims of other incidents under his regime.

I therefore also disagree with the execution of Saddam at this moment. I think it would have been better if they continued with the trails and also had him convicted for the other crimes he committed.

I'm also particularly curious what this does to the stability in Iraq.
