Such things as improvment in medical care, schools being reopened, freedome of speech and assemply and freedom to protest. Also, oil production is higher than it was in pre-war years AND THE FUNDS ARE BEING HELD IN A TRUST FUND to benefit the Iraqi people! To date over 10 BILLION dollars is in that Trust Fund.

Uh... Improvement of medical care could have been achieved by lifting the embargo. Schools being re-opened - They were closed by what? Oh yeah, we were dropping bombs and shooting up the place so it wasn't safe for the kiddies to go to school. Freedom of speech, assembly and protest. Seems to me they had these freedoms (as long as it was against the US). And now that they have them to do with as they please, who do they speak out about, rally about, and protest about? Why us! The great and beneficiant liberators! What an improvement!
