The question is not meaningless to me. I'm for America's interests first, and America has an interest in stability in the ME. A civil war in Iraq could be a real problem for us, since it could draw in other countries. I'm not even sure a civil war will be better for the Iraqis than Saddam, but that's a secondary consideration for me- America's interests are my primary consideration when we are spending American lives and money to accomplish something.

Stability may not be your goal, but instability is highly over rated (often by people who have not had the pleasure of experiencing it.) IMO of course. Time will tell how good an idea the whole adventure was. History will be the judge, as it always is.
