And all the "no electricity" arguments are old. Yes, the country was largely without power after we bombed the crap out of it. But. at least according to the letters from the front that I've seen, that is not a substantial problem now.

What will you say once the civil war takes full effect and another million die ? WILL you still be gung ho for this ?
