Dick Cheney identifies the problems of Iraq: "Q What was the biggest mistake you made?
VICE PRESIDENT CHENEY: Oh, I think in terms of mistakes, I think we
underestimated the extent to which 30 years of Saddam's rule had really
hammered the population, especially the Shia population, into
submissiveness. It was very hard for them to stand up and take
responsibility in part because anybody who had done that in the past had
had their heads chopped off." (thanks May)
