Because now they are getting killed at 10x the rate per year and being mainly innocent civilians, rather than during Saddam were they were mainly Iranian terrorists and traitors and 1/10th the current per year rate.

Saddam used to kill them himself, and now they're killing each other, and this is worse, exactly how?

1. We were not involved in the killings.
2. Over 3,000 of our own soldiers were killed
3. We have over 20,000 injured (many severely)
4. We have spent over several hundred billions of dollars.
5. We are committed to spending several more hundreds of billions of dollars.
6. We have no exit strategy.
7. Saddam (my guess) was more efficient. Only Saddam was allowed to kill. Now religious zealots, AQ, criminal elements, and a lot of amateurs are killing each other.
