Iraq itself will be like Lebanon in the 80's, in a state of perpetual civil war that will carry on for at least a decade, probably longer. Much longer.

The Iraqi people by and large will recall lovingly their years of relative tranquility and prosperity under Saddam Hussein as "the good old days".

It is a sad situation with absolutely no solution
