By the way... when we constantly hear of the civil war between the SUNNIS and SHIITES, what religion are those two groups of people? And why, if they belong to a "religion of peace" are they killing each other by the thousands?
Well you are confusing two issues here.

Saddam has nothing to do with Islam. Iraq was a secular muslim state. In fact it was saddam's regime that prevented civil war and the thousands of deaths that follow.

Anyhow this thread was about the fallout of the Iraq war.

Are you going to turn around and deny that the US is responsible for the misery in Iraq? Would you prefer to pass the buck to the Iraqis?

So basically you're saying that once you have invaded and shot up the country, deposed a leader and IMPOSED an outside governmental system.. THEN the iraqis should pick it up happily and live joyously forever after?

Come on dude.. That is neither realistic nor fair.
