Actually, that was going to be my counter-arguement for the "Pros" section. We would do research on the trend of people dieing under Saddam, and we would see how many more years Saddam would have to be in power to replicate the amount of deaths that were caused by the war. Not to mention if this puppet government does work, there won't be any more evil dictators in charge, and hopefully they would be able to cut down on crime and terrorism in Iraq. The problem is though, I'm no psycic, and niether are you.
