A bloodbath in Iraq if we leave ? [View All]

What would cause the bloodbath? There would be a bloodbath without an established government with policemen and security, we are told. If we leave, would people flock to join the insurgent movement or would its numbers stay about the same? Or would their numbers go down? If the Shiites or Kurds try to lord it over the Sunnis as payback for the Saddam years, there will be continued violence, most people would agree. So where would the bloodbath occur? If the Shiites and Kurds did not seek revenge, it seems the major problem would be dealing with the violence of the Sunnis, car bombs and assassinations, just like we are doing today. But bloodbath? Where would it happen?
