Saddam Hussein's death sentence: a Salafi fatwa

According to PRISM, shaykh Hamed al-'Ali has issued a few hours ago this fatwa about Saddam Hussein's death sentence, apparently in response to the question whether the former ruler of Iraq should be considered a shahid (martyr) if he was executed on behalf of the government-appointed tribunal.
Saddam Hussein hasn't been completely rehabilitated yet by militant radical Islamic groups, but the fatwa mentions God's mercy upon him and calls for more unity among the insurgent groups in Iraq. Note how the text questions how many Kurds have been killed in internecine conflicts between Mustafa Barzani's KDP and Talabani's PUK militias rather than in the infamous Anfal campaign.
