Anarchy? How fast do you expect things to change?
I might be reading this wrong, and if so I apologise. It seems you are saying that there are members of the "Coliation of the Willing" who are just as evil as Saddam? If so, tell me who is more evil than Saddam? Who has killed millions of their OWN people? Who has put children in jail? Who has supported terrorism? Who has killed people because of their religion?
So if I am following you, you think that Saddam still in power would be a good thing. And if that is the fact, then I am glad I live in the world I live in and not yours. All Saddam had to do is say, come back in the country and I will prove to you that there were no WMDs and he would still be in power.

And like many others that feel the same as you, there will be no amount of information that will change your mind.
Granted I am biased also. I also think we need to find those WMDs (but I will give them 6 more months) and help the Iraqi people get their goverment going, again it will take a long time (from what I have heard, min of 2 years) but I hope that there is some form of interm Iraqi control within 6 months.

Um, how do you see that. Have you failed to see that North Korea are talking about concessions. The Saudi's starting to realize that supporting terror will bite them in the butt. That we have been catching the terorists before they strike? That perhaps the Arab countries will marginalize Arafat (about damn time if you ask me)?
True, there have been attacks, but I still see more positive things since the war on Iraq, than before the war. Back to the glass half full again.
