I concede that you're the expert on Iraqi affairs. so, generally speaking, doesn't it disrupt the democratic process if we interfere? Also, Bush says troops will remain in Iraq until after he leaves office, which means even if there's a civil war.

Well, you're right. Headless chickens run amok
(Mar 28, '06)
An increasingly desperate US is talking to Iran's Shi'ite leadership as Iraq drifts into civil war. At the same time, the American military is alienating Shi'ite sympathizers within Iraq by taking the fight to Muqtada al-Sadr's militia. Iraq's Shi'ite-dominated interim government is now demanding that the US hand over control of the country's security. Meanwhile, the Kurds have fallen out with their Shi'ite allies and are courting Sunnis - to Tehran's concern; the Iraqi president and prime minister are at loggerheads; and there is still no sign of a real government. President Bush's "long haul" is getting longer.
