Well John the war has only just begun. You are now having to sit back and watch young soldiers killed off in spasmodic attacks. We have already lost more men "after" the war than we did during it.As for worrying about genocide I don't recall that being the reason for invading Iraq. Even our own PM Tony Blair has come under heavy criticism for siding with America. In fact a recent poll showed that 94% of people questioned did not trust him anymore. Quite remarkable when you consider his popularity before the war.
