Apparently, if this letter is to be believed, they DO want the US there. Some old Ba'ath party bastards want you gone so that they can grab power again (Saddam is still hiding, after all). He was indeed no threat to the continental US, just to your oil supply, which could have crippled your economy. But that's it, really.
If everyone were to "straighten their own shit" before going anywhere, nobody would help anyone else out at all. Every country in the world has "shit" to straighten...
