Less than 5,000? Where do you get your figures?
You question my compassion because you're too blind to see where I'm coming from. All you're doing is thinking short term. Saddam is gone, yes, but what is left for the people? Is it enough simply that he's gone? NO. He's been replaced by occupation. An occupation that is hypocritical and selfish and really has nothing to do with the actual people of the country.
A truly legitimate revolution would occur from within, as was attempted after the first Gulf War.
The path of least resistance isn't always the best way to go. Would this resentment of the US exist if they had helped the Iraqi people do the job themselves?
Two different paths and results so how can you compare likely casualties?
Remember, the struggle has just taken a different form now.
