Good way to grossly simplify the Iraqi civil war and ROE!
I'd agree with "IIRC the USA invaded Iraq, which set of a decades-long civil war fueled by sectarian violence and incompetent application of various nation building and counter-insurgency strategies." But that's a less clean catchphrase.

And if this was the first time this had happened, with every previous war being exemplary precision execution, then wow, this would just be a terrible tragedy. But it's not. Its modus operandi. Iraqis, Libyans, Syrians, Koreans, Vietnamese, etc. As I said, "We'll come to you!"
