You can't shove "democracy" down the throat of a country that obviously does not want it. Unfortunately, it is too late to back out of this situation, and I fear it will last much longer than expected or wanted.
Too bad the money wasted to kill innocent people couldn't go towards
something positive.

It is a small number of terrorists doing all the damage. Not the majority of iraqis. If iraqis obviously don't want democracy then why do, day after day, more young iraqi men line up to become police and join the iraqi army with continued bombings against them? After assasinations and hostage taking why do candidates continue to involve themselves in the upcoming elections?
The recent attack is a traject aspect of war and it is a reminder that we are fighting people willing to kill themselves in order to take iraq back to the dark ages. Note above article:

The Ansar al-Sunnah Army claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement on the Internet. It said the attack was a "martyrdom operation" targeting a mess hall in the al-Ghizlani camp...Ansar al-Sunna is believed to be a fundamentalist group that wants to turn Iraq into an Islamic state like Afghanistan's former Taliban regime. The Sunni Muslim group claimed responsibility for beheading 12 Nepalese hostages and other recent attacks in Mosul.

I have a feeling you are going to be suprised at the polling turnout on election day in the face of continued terror. It will a higher turnout than the US has had in any election I can remember.
