Isn't it ironic that Iraq, though governed by a despot, is still farther along the road to modernization than any of those feudal monarchies? In destroying a great deal of the underlying fabric of Iraq, the U.S. will unintentionally help these last remaining feudal societies, and the terrorism that their own repression spawns.
