I guess you guys don't know how to read. What I said was the pot was boiling before the war but the war has caused it to boil over. Prove me wrong! We are the largest destabilizing force in the area. Prove me wrong. Facts is facts. Tell me that the sunnis and shiites would be fighting if Sadam was still in power. He would kill a few thousand shiites and it would be over. Sadam kept the lid on the pot and Bush removed him, utterly stupid. You have to look at the big picture, not Sadam bad, kill Sadam! We have litteraly opened Pandoras box. You can blame it on all kinds of abstract thingys, but the fact is We, The USA, destabilized the middle east, period.
