But the folks making the decision to invade knew a civil war was likely - most of them had said as much and agreed on that point in 1991.

I don't know what the right verb is to replace "wanted", which was clearly not the case. "Hoped to avoid" perhaps? Something Washingtonian like that.

I don't know about that. Let's wait for a show of hands. I'd rather not assume no one wanted a civil war.
