I mean, the sad fact is, one of the reasons why I was arguing against this war was not just that it was based on a lie, but it’s a reflection of the reality that was recognized in 1991: If you remove Saddam and you don’t have a clue what’s going to replace Saddam, you’re going to get chaos and anarchy.
