I don't think that anyone sees the hanging as a great thing, I mean he's gone but it doesn't solve any of their problems. Hopefully now people will concentrate on the real issues at hand. The whole Iraq issue will not be solved by one person dieing. It won't be solved by any number of people dieing.
As for the arguements that the trial was not fair: Think about it. Would a truly impartial group of people find him innocent? I would like to think not. And if they didn't chose the death penalty, Iraqis would be stuck paying for this guy to sit in a cell for the rest of his life (that's not cheap). So I think it is for the best.
