Implying that the US had good intentions that went bad is about as realistic as saying Hitler's policies 'went bad'. The US perpetrated the bloodshed, tried to blame the Iraqis who then fell for the US 'divide and rule' methodology. The US could have stopped the bloodshed by withdrawing.

Everything was so normal, children laughing, mothers watching. I have never felt more helpless in my life.
