I had to go to bed and couldn't then think of a solution.

More like they have no experience in governing themselfs. And all they've ever had is dictators.

And I believe that the US course of action was and always will be the right thing, executed so poorly that it can only end badly. The Iraqi's should have goten rid of the dictators themselfs. Then it would actually seem like an accomplishment instead of exchanging one foregin overlord for another.
