Oh no. They will most welcome their liberators, just like
the Afghans recently liberated. They, for example are so
happy that their newly and democratically
elected president has to be protected by the US army
from the overhelming love of his own people.

But the boys will return from the Gulf in their unfaded
glory after just a couple of decades of peacekeeping.
(Or they can choose to return every 12 years, if they
don't feel like staying for so long).

I'm sure Karzai would gladly call you a fool, as there are elements in his country that don't agree with his rule, not the entire country as you so recklessly allude to. Extremism is a problem in Afghanistan, much like ignorance is among certain circles in the US...

...and the UN would most likely be called in to help with the peacekeeping excercise after any regime change, as the US has stated more than once that they would leave after they considered their job done, which right now would most likely be considered getting Hussein out of Iraq, along with finding and destroying any remaining chem/biochem weapons...
