The old regime is dead

Saddam Hussein al-Tikriti is most certainly not dead (although we should have killed him), and if we don't, there is a chance that he will be back in power.

Like Napoleon, there will be a moment when he throws open his cloak and says, "Soldiers of Iraq-shoot me if you must!"

I don't think they will.

Oops! One of the old regime's generals was just resurrected and we have turned Fallujah over to him!
