History shows that Iraq (and most of the middle east) has been a collection of factions that make and break alliances constantly - the fact that those factions are still doing the same thing with the US should not surprise us.
What HAS to be different this time is the creation of a civil government that is flexible enough to flow through those changes without the eruption of violence. We can do it on our continent but that's because we've had something in place for over 200 years.
