Reply #5: We could have helped w/o pulverizing the entire country

[MissWaverly]

I refuse to believe that in the entire world there was not a group of exiles that wished to replace Saddam, we could have supported them, it was not about Saddam, it was about the oil, we have dismantled the country, that was not necessary, what we have done is cause complete failure of the framework of civil, political and governmental structure required to run the country. Where do we go from here, I don't know. The insurgent attacks become more sophisticated and ruthless against the Iraqi people every day.
