| 87. Because the Iraqi people are hardly united at this point... |

it's not like there is any solidarity behind any one ideal. Hell, Colin Powell was asked about the possibility of Iraqi civil war on MTP - he responded something to the effect of "I don't think that's gonna happen". Hmmm, real convincing. I don't buy it. What you suggest is over simplified and cloyingly idealistic. "Hey guys! Sorry about the bombs and war and stuff. Our bad! So what do ya wanna do now?"
