Changes

In April [[1991]], when a debate was raging about the desirability of a U.S. intervention against the [[Saddam Hussein]] regime, Pipes wrote in the ''Wall Street Journal'' about the prospect of U.S. forces occupying Iraq, "with Schwartzkopf Pasha ruling from Baghdad": "It sounds romantic, but watch out. Like the Israelis in southern Lebanon nine years ago, American troops would find themselves quickly hated, with [[Shi'a]]s as taking up [[suicide bombing]], [[Kurd]]s Kurds resuming their rebellion, and the [[Syria]]n and [[Iran]]ian Iranian governments plotting new ways to sabotage American rule. Staying in place would become too painful, leaving too humiliating." [http://www.danielpipes.org/article/209]
