France "stopped" the insurgency?

They managed to supress it- with savageness. But "stopped" it? Surely, you jest.

Saddam had stopped the insurgency before it even started, Nadine. The only way we'll stop it is to become Saddam.

I'd much rather just leave and let the next Saddam evolve out of the hell we leave behind than to BECOME Saddam ourselves..
