I read a great article by Victor David-Hanson late last year. To answer critics that war in Iraq would inflame the Arab street, he said that the Arab street could tolerate many things. It could tolerate genocide, torture, and gender apartheid, but what the Arab street could not tolerate is the humiliation of defeat. When Saddam is defeated, the street will revile him as a traitor.


Bingo.
