I think the US admin tried to apply the 'Afghanistan Plan' but Iraq is very different, much more civilized; Iraqis are used to a certain standard of living and they will be pissed as long as they don't have these very basic needs met.

And do you know who gave them that standard of living?
Who built the roads, the schools, the sanitation plants, the electricity generators?
And who took it all away and has not got it working again?
One man's enemy is another mans hero, one mans hero is anothers enemy.
The peace will be very hard to win if not impossible. Only time will tell us what it was for.
