Saddam is not worse than the other butcherers the West has supported (covertly of course) in the past. In fact, I'd argue that he has a leg to stand on. After all, he killed rioters, rebels, enemies of the state, and usurpers.

Making him suffer would do nothing more than anger his supporters, give America another reason to be attacked by anti-America terrorist orginizations, and extend this whole ordeal to an unnecissary length.
His excecution is the best solution.

This is terribly flawed logic. How is killing someone better than putting him in jail lifetime, in terms of angering his followers? Making him a MARTYR is better than just keeping him in jail? Right.

Killing him is better than torturing and keeping him in prison because he clearly is deservant of death for him crimes, and by America just keeping him alive would be just another way to "make an example" of the evil Mr. Hussein, which would just anger his followers.

That's fucking retarded. No one considers death sentence to be better for him than keeping him alive, particularly not his followers. His followers will be fucking pissed if you hang him.

And he does not deserve death any more than most leaders around the world. Treason, last I checked, still means death, in most countries.

It is a far greater insult to followers of a man to hold him in captivity and torment him, than to kill him and have it over with. His followers would be far more upset that he is being kept alive as a symbol of Americas power over other countries villains, then if he was just killed and the whole ordeal was ended.

You clearly have no idea of what the fuck you're talking about. Mainly due to the fact that he's not even being tried or sentenced by America.

No, but he was handed over by America where he would be tried using the laws of his country. But we are not discussing what is actually happening, which is that he is being executed. We are talking about the fact that it would have been worse if America had just kept Hussein imprisoned rather than killing him.
And swearing just makes you look stupid, by the way.

Sailors swear like sailors, and they don't look stupid, they look badass.

Anyhow, imprisonment is never more offensive to anyone than execution, particularly in this case, and the mere notion that it would be for his supporters is ridiculous and has no logical basis. You can eventually free an imprisoned man. A dead man, however, is a martyr, someone whose blood was spilled for his righteousness and his fight for the cause. History agrees with me here.
