That is one reason why the war with Iraq is not a good idea. We are not walking into a group of conscripted sunni muslims like we did 10 years ago. We are walking into a starved and desperate people.

Starved and desperate??? Compared to N Korea or much of Cuba/China/South Africa or any number of other countries. Plain and simple....we want oil... we sold them the wepons now we want to take them away along with conrol of thier governement. we already have LONG TERM plans ready for Iraq....The govt. admits that. Why should the US be making LONG TERM Plans for a country.... last I checked thats called an invasion and a take over, Not a liberation. Honestly... I hope I'm wrong.
