Video of senior Bush administration official predicting as long ago as 1994 that an invasion of Iraq would lead to a "quagmire" and possibly split the country in pieces: Dick Cheney. "Once you got to Iraq and took it over, took down Saddam Hussein's government, then what are you going to put in its place?" the vice president said when asked about the 1990-91 Gulf War, as the Telegraph reports. "That's a very volatile part of the world, and if you take down the central government of Iraq, you could very easily end up seeing pieces of Iraq fly off."
