<The administration was warned by top ranking old timers in intelligence and the State Department and the military about exactly what would probably happen (civil war).>

As well the fact that they didn't consult many of the Middle Eastern experts they have OR any European resources (allies) likely to know much more.... OTOH, they don't really 'like' the European opinion on most diplomacy issues... another 'child like' behaviour, but most administrations seem to do that. Most administrations haven't been involved in such activity however.
