I think, that in the long run, most Iraqi citizens will be pleased that Saddam and his Bathist government are gone. Right now, much of the country is in turmoil and random violence is an everyday occurance regardless of who you are or who you support. Many innocents have died and while many others would have died under Saddam, those who have suffered loss primarily see the US as the cause of their grief. Is Iraq better off? In some ways yes, in some ways no. The question remains and will remain unanswerable for quite a long time.
