when people dont like what they have, they find a way to express it, and get rid of it. it takes time.

India (includes post partition Pakistan & Bangladesh), were not happy to be part of the Empire. The folks then found a way to express their opinion, and the Empire eventually left that part of the world.

Didn't happen in a hurry, probably took a generation's worth of struggle but it happened.

Moving on, IMO, no matter what happens in Iraq (or Palestine, or Kashmir), over the next 2-5 years, it will take a generation to get "what the people want".

cheers, kumar
