"New U.S. envoy to Iraq 'horrified' by attacks"

A report from today's AP Wire:

BAGHDAD, Iraq - America's new ambassador to Iraq expressed horror yesterday at the violence racking the country and said Islamic extremists and Saddam Hussein loyalists are trying to start a civil war.

I believe this falls into the "No shit, Sherlock" category.

Also,

"I am horrified by the daily suffering of the Iraqi people. The terrorists attack ordinary people, teachers, doctors, newly trained police and others who are assisting the people of Iraq," Khalilzad added.

My question to conservatives, or anyone who still stands behind this war is...how is this better than before we invaded Iraq? Don't get me wrong, Saddam was a jackass. But it seems like every day we get more confirmation of how we have fucked these people, royaly.
