The fact that they're still there in my opinion is that they've made such a cock up of the whole thing that they(Bush & Blair) need to stay to save face.

So, bearing in mind what Saddam was doing to large sections of the population, that the provisional government in Iraq does not currently (AFAIK) have enough resources or infrastructure to be able to run the country (and, as has been proved this week, cannot neccesarily trust the infrastructure they do have), and without help, the government is likely to collapse leading to anarchy (although that seems to be a good description of what is going on anyway), what do you suggest we do?
The Iraqis are suffering at the moment. I suspect if we left, that suffering would be a lot worse.
