Did Debaathification create insurgents? |

From what I hear, the policies of removing Baath party members were pretty harsh. Former members were kicked out of jobs and schools, they basically couldn't do anything.
These policies probably made them pretty desperate to do things, like you know, putting food on the table and whatnot.
