Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't - but if you're pro war in this region, your question just blew a huge hole in the effort.

...think about it: if disbanding the Iraqi Army and Baathist Party was amnesty created to stem the violence, why are we still there? To use military force? Which also isn't working?

Look, as it seems, the whole reason for this quagmire was to secure the oil. Then go ahead, surround the fields with U.S. Forces, and take it. Quit ****ing with the country's infrastructure by forcing democracy down their throats.
