But given the growing violence, and apparent descent into civil war, it does seem to make sense that "stability under dictatorship" seems like a much better option for the people of Iraq than the current "anarchy under democracy". Particularly since there is little to no hope for success.

If nothing else the Iraqi death count was much lower by even conservative estimates.

Depends on the outcome. I'm sure if a poll were conducted during the Civil War as only one example people would have said that it was better before this started. But out of it came the start of freedom for Americans of color.

I'll bet the Kurds already don't agree.
