I said it Day One.
If we don’t stay there for at least 20 or more years, this was going to inevitably happen.
It’s naive to think these people can be tamed and suddenly have Western Style democracy.

What would change in 20 years?
Bottom line is that these guys must have Saddam, Assad or whoever to set rules and enforce it via chopping body parts of the most extreme haters.
The alternative is an all out war on Jews, women, Christians, fellow muslims etc.
~Should have let the Kurds have the entire country.~
Do you realize that a Kurd cause is socialist to boot?
BTW, I hate communists deeply but they are an improvement comparing to jihadis.
Communists tend to a republican type of government, flawed though via rigged elections and government propaganda, and they are also encouraging education.
Education makes their subjects see through a government propaganda and observe other flaws of communism as a system, and they already have a republic to fix it, given they are able to fix elections and overcome corruption. That is a primary reason why no communist regime ever lived too long.
And muslims are too far into a 7th century to implement any of the above, even if unhappy with their rule.
