They may have gotten him but I think they have made one major mistake. He is still alive. As long as he is alive his followers will still have hope. And can you imagine the circus that will follow this now? It will be bigger than even the Ringling Bros could ever imagine.
JoelLibertarian is still the way to go if we truly want a real change.

who says that his toilet articles were used by himself?
omg, I see a lot of conspiracy theories popping up...
the dna of his sons would help, of course - in theory half of the mapped markers should be detectable.

So no real place for conspiracy theories - of course there's always hpar, LiquidMemory and the like, but you definitely won't want be one of them...

and then there is always the possibility of a cheating wife (not as uncommon as you would believe - iirc ~10% of the children are not what their fathers think they are. )

And I guess the double would really have hated it when Saddam had found out that he cheated on him with his own wife....

Problem is that as he was captured alive, his followers will step up attacks to put pressure on US officials for his release.
As for a trial, if found guilty of the crimes he is known for, there will be those who feel the US and its interests influenced the court procedings to get the guilty verdict.
to summarize,
if he is alive, he is a threat
if he is dead, he is a martyr to his followers inciting more attacksBetter to let one think you are a fool, than speak and prove it

To ID him they can use;
1. cell nuclear DNA from his sons who were killed last summer and any other close blood relatives.
2. cell nuclear DNA from hair roots in his hairbrush, toothbrush (cells from his gums), electric razor (dead skin cells sucked into same), clothing (dead skin cells adhering to their inside surfaces) or even any of his known shoes and socks (more dead skin cells).
3. cell nuclear DNA from any envelopes/stamps he's known to have licked.
4. mitochondrial DNA from a grandmother/mother/siblings, all of which will be identical and passed down the maternal line.
5. fingerprints from any documents he signed
6. documented scars and other body markings
7. captured dental records
among many other methods.

I'm glad that he's been captured, and I'm glad that he's alive. His death would really make him a martyr and incite even more unrest, IMHO.
