Our cause initially was war against Al Qaeda. And then it was preventing Saddam from attacking us with WMD via Al Qaeda and other terrorists.

But, apparently there were no WMD, and we were skunked by the Iraqis in exile. Chalabi, and his gang, who also assured us that once we got rid of Saddam, it would be easy to install democracy in Iraq.

Not just us, in fairness Chalabi skunked a lot of people, except for the Iraqis who knew him best.

If you want to argue that there are no moderate Muslims nor is there any hope nor even the remotest possibility that removing Saddam will lead to a total morphing of the Iraqi people into the necessart preconditions for democracy, you're preaching to the choir.

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
