So just because the Iraqies had an election , you guys figure killing 100,000+ innocent people (along with spending billions of $$$) is justified ?

Didn't the US try to install a US friendly gov. in Iran in the 60's (the Shah)?

Do you really think that even if democracy holds in Iraq (which, BTW could take decades) that the Royal-dictators of the world will all of a sudden relenquish their powers?

Another consequence of this is that now you have a majority (shiite) in power over a minority (sunni)... as time goes along the majority is gonna bear a grudge against the minority (see Rawanda 1994) and commit mass genocide.

Anyways I hope it(democracy) sticks so all this crap won't be in vain.

And GWB is still an idiot.
