Sham,
I see what you're trying to say, and yes, things could get worse. No debate on that.
Do you think that what's been happening to "those Iraqi citizens that bought in and supported the concept of a free and democratic nation" during the past three years, and especially during the past year, isn't already happening?
Two million Iraqis have fled their country to escape the horror.
So, could it get worse, yes. But it appears to be bad enough already.
"Stay the course" isn't making the situation any better, despite the delusional dreams of the "Decider" and his vice-emporer.
