Hussein fought against the future Caliphs because he wanted to be Caliph. So it was a war of dynastic succession. But they call Hussein a martyr. huh???????

Why would they not call Hussein a martyr? Seems logical to be.

Not Saddam. The other one. In fact Hussein is a very common name in the Arab world.
