--another stupdendously narrow reading of what I or others wrote. I think you are mistaken, the war's end is hardly in sight, it appears to only have just begun. Don't blame us for that.
You seem stuck on what should be or could be or would like to be. I'd sooner talk about what is and its origins. For example, why is it that we had every good reason to expect this kind of breakdown of Iraqi society, looting, civilian deaths, continued warfare, the survival of Saddam (to date) and most of his upper echelon, the coming privatization of Iraqi oil fields, increased acts of terrorism (state and individual), etc.

well, you've been suckered in too much. time to stop watching.
