I'm not sure anyone knows if Saddam is alive or dead right now.
Recently a building was targeted which Saddam and his sons were believed to be in--they aren't sure yet if they were or not, and if they are alive or dead.

I know many of us share your feelings--the best thing I do to try not to worry or anything, is keep educated about what is going on--check the news online or on tv every once in a while, and keep yourself informed.
