I know - whether or not you were for the initial invasion, etc, it was pretty clear that the point was to change the country to the point where this sort of thing doesn't happen. The fact that it is indicates some very troubling things, and means we should be having some serious conversations vis a vis human nature and foreign intervention. But we don't seem to be doing so.
