excellent piece by Layne of Cato Institute, thanks

I expect devastation of Iraq
splintering of the nation, with many pieces eyes by neighbors
destabilization of the entire region
severe cutbacks in oil production, not increases
no costly rebuilding at US taxpayer expense
and no democracy (what a joke)

the tough choices will be spending money on oil production
OR
spending money on impoverished resentful Iraqi citizens
