What is the point of this article? Saddam would be dead if US did not guard him away from the Iraqis for so long. They wanted him dead yesterday! Also US troops leaving does not solve sunnis killing Shia's and vice-versa. The logic given to us now is that these groups are fighting each other for 1300 years and only a brutal dictator can keep them separate. This is not a logical end to this problem. Most deaths in Iraq are their in fighting. US should stay at the cost of lives to provide security. They are also responsible for unleashing the hell. But Saddam being gone is not one of the worst things they did in Iraq
