Hold it! US adventure in Iraq was to get rid of old stock of bombs in its arsenal, thus creating a an artifical boomlet to the US economy.

Second to create its own Israel to justify a USD400+billion of "defense" budget. It has accomplished that:

Boomlet, and has its own Israel at hand now. Difficult is going to be to get rid of it...

>>Surely you don't think that the USA will stay in Iraq after the capture of Saddam and the remaining few in the deck of cards<<

As usual, you are right on the money, Mq. The day after DNA from Saddam's bullet-riddled corpse is positively identified, we will learn that the Iraqi Governing Council is ready to take full control of Iraq's destiny. It'll be off into the sunset for us, sixguns holstered until the day another bad hombre rides into town.
