And instead we get much more suffering.

McDermott was being pragmatic. Between 50,000 and 200,000ish Iraqis were killed during Saddam's 30 year reign. That's terrible, but between 500,000 and 1,000,000 have been killed in the last ten years, and a quarter of the population was displaced. I hate to say it, but Saddam was preferable to what we created.

Why is saving hundreds of thousands of people and keeping millions from losing their homes treason?
