I think, if I remember correctly, in the first gulf war, Saddam employed many decoys, of which the 'allies' took out almost a dozen. They did try!
Personally, I think the sentance is just and should be passed as soon as possible. With someone of his history and following, letting him 'waste' in prison only gives more opportunity for an uprising to get him free and put back into a position of power. Getting rid of him once and for all is the best thing IMO. He will only be a martyr to those who follow him, who are restricted to areas of his home country. Let them do what they wish with regards to memory, because it won't bring him back if he's dead.
