Saddam was no Mr. Nice Dictator but we had him in a box. It is quite possible that an Iranian-backed Shiite proxy group will end up coming out on top. By toppling Saddam all we did was hand over the country to more extremist religious fanatics, who are no more friends of the U.S. than Saddam was.

Excellent insight and my thoughts from the very beginning even though I still believe we need to be there. As others have stated already, we already started this thing and we need to finish it. Future US credibility is at stake. And I am not just talking about current years but upwards of 50 years or more. If the current administration gives this war the full resources necessary to complete it you will find a measurable success. With the proper manpower, intelligence, support, funding, it can be achieved. Instead our current administration never took it seriously and undermined the war effort from the very beginning.
