And this is where that idiot George W. Bush fits in. Saddam Hussein was evil, a monster. But Saddam’s Iraq was a counterbalance to the regional ambitions of the mullahs in Iran.

W did the mullahs a great favor by taking Saddam out. Iraq is now little more than a loose confederation of tribes. No counterbalance to Iran at all.
