Indeed, the waging of a war on Iraq will be worse than not having a war on Iraq.

FH, >>Experts here in India felt that any US
military attack on Iraq will result in widespread destruction, including mass killing of the people in that country. Pointing to the mass exodus of Iraqi refugees towards neighboring countries, two defense experts told IRNA in exclusive interviews, Saturday, that America will try to pressurize the countries giving shelter to the refugees by framing some allegations against them and making claims after the war.<<

I think the estimates above are very much a sure thing once the war starts. Plus the Iraqis have decided to burn and destroy their huge oil wells once U.S. invade. Which will add greater destructions and environmental disaster to the whole region.

All the estimates above haven't included the coming casualties of the American men and women who were sent to the war and the increasingly likely destructions from the retaliate attacks by the Iraqi or Arab world to the U.S. homeland once the war starts.
