The verdict in the trial of Saddam Hussein is expected on Sunday and precautions are being taken.
One wonders how any more precautions could be taken.
My take: The execution of Saddam will be a major step toward stabilizing Iraq. In an area where conspiracy theories flourish, you can bet that there is a sizable segment of the population fearing that somehow, through a deal with the Americans, the dictator will engineer a return to power.
Putting him beneath the ground will help to remove that possibility.
May it be sooner rather than later.
