I don't think so. Not as long as Western troops remain in Iraq. [/QUOTE]Saddam was behnd a sizeable part of the attacks against cohalition troops. With him out, things should stabilize a bit. No point in getting killed because of the orders of someone who will never come back to see if you carried them out, don't you think?
Of course the attacks inspired by Islamistic radical groups will not cease. [/QUOTE]We don't know yet if he personally directed the attacks or if he just desperately tried to hid from the Coalition's troops. We'll have to wait and see what the interrogations with him will reveal. [/QUOTE]I don't think he personally directed the attacks, he was hunted after all. But he was inspiring them. And paying for them, parhaps.
Now that he has been captured, there is no point to fight. It is a psychological thing - he was the regime, and he is truly no more.
