Of course there are sides. We know this because any discussion about how to best accomplish our goals immediately turns into a question of which side you're on.

There you go again. No one ever said that it is not possible that we will get something worse. Just unlikely. Things were pretty bad under Saddam Hussein so things will really have to screw up badly in Iraq for things to get worse than life under Saddam. Iraq is a paradise right now compared to what it was under Saddam. Your view of how bad things are in Iraq right now are distorted, and your view of life under Saddam is distorted.
