Why take over their home - refuse to hand it back and 'appoint' outsiders to run it - why punish them in such a manner?

If rebuilding their homes, schools, hosptials and electricity plants is a crime, I'd hate to see your definition of "help."
They are handing it back. Rome wasn't built in a day. Anarchy is not quelled in a week.
What were you expecting? Leaving a void for another Hussein, the strongest warlord, to force their rule of law? The man with the largest gang could have filled the void. Hussein himself was only recently found if you recall.
As to "killing the kids" the analogical equivalent would be breaking their arm to force the door open. Damaging A SECTION, not the whole. What percentage of Iraq died? How many are now free?
Why are you even arguing this? Are you suggesting Hussein was a good man who should have been allowed to keep smashing his people? What would your solution to the mess oh' great one. I'm sure, now you have hindsight, you have the answers.
