>Really? The whole Shia/Sunni civil war, dysfunctional government, beheadings, militias, death squads in the police force, car and truck bombs, dysfunctional army, corruption everywhere, al Qaeda, people afraid the leave their houses, broken infrastructure, 50%+ unemployment, millions leaving the country, millions displaced within the country...........
Yes. Check back to my SI posts from Feb/March 2003 when I did a complete 360 on the war when I realized what nincompoops the administration were when it come to this stuff. Although, to be fair, I thought that the order of events would be different -- I believe I predicted that we'd come in, overthrow Saddam, stick around for a year or three, and then leave, at which point everything would deteriorate.
