Yup, I don't really think you're going to get a rational argument that Iraq was a good decision.
It still didn't create the underlying problems. We didn't turn it into a medieval tribal theocracy, we removed the person that was preventing it from happening previously.
We created the situation where it could flourish, but the roots of sectarian violence were obviously there.
