Would these be the same military analysits who said the people of Iraq would welcome us with open arms? Or the ones who said Saddam had a full arsenal of chemical and biologica munitions? Or the ones who thought Al-Queda was but part of Saddam's devious plan to conquer America?

All the capture of Saddam did was allow Ba'ath party activists to form alliances with religious extreemists. They were forbidden, by Saddam, to have any contact with the Jihadis. Now they have no such restraint. I have not noticed any redution in the number of troops maimed or killed since Saddam was captured. The political situation, in Iraq, looks to be degenerating into civil war rather than stabalizing.

I do not see any evidence of your belief, sorry.

Putting the Iraq's corportate looters, and their adminstration cohorts, in jail would do far more to make America and her people safer than capturing Saddam, IMHO.
