Occupying any country, if the majority of the people do not open their arms to the occupiers, is very difficult at best. I suspect that the majority of the Iraqi people will initially be over joyed at ridding themselves of Sadam. It is the stated intention of the Administration to democratize Iraq. If this can be accomplished on a timely basis, a long term presence of America may be accepted, if not, who knows the end game.
