"If so, so what?"

You are not sure what would happen and you prefer not to think about it. It is pretty well understood what kind of scenario would be left and what the long term results would be. It would be short term civil war with a new fundamental fascist ruler rising out of the ashes with a new regime. In the long term this would result in a rapid development of resources and a climb to super power status, with us at the top of the list for enemies to be eliminated.

When you leave a hole it is guaranteed that it will get filled.

It's ok with me if you want to quietly leave such questions to lucid individuals. Why you are so noisy at the same time is odd.
