Regicides always have unforeseen and unhappy consequences...
Something there is, in the natural order of things, that does not like a regicide...
It's almost Freudian...or Jungian, in nature.
I have no doubt that the murder of Saddam, the cruel father of Modern Iraq...(events for which I can not think of any modern precedent)...will lead to results and happenings as yet unforeseen and unforeseeable...
The Iraqi, American, and indeed the global, Jungian Collective Unconscious is now "in play" in our sad little war...
