Well, there wasn't a lot of conflict when the conflictors (is that a word?)
were being butchered :-).

And in case you've forgotten, we didn't go into Iraq to "make the world just
slightly better". but to eliminate a threat to us that it turned out was bogus
- whether by mistake or intention is still to be determined.

If the Iraqis had a bad government, it was up to the Iraqis to do something to
fix the problem, not us. But the truth is that the Sunnis were quite happy
with Saddam and encouraged and abetted his atrocities against the Shia and
the Kurds.
