Solution To The Iraq War

Since the Sunni and Shea are determined to have a civil war, we should let them do it.

We need to carve out a space in country and move all our troops, aircraft, trucks, munitions etc. away from them and let them have at it.

Whoever wins makes up the New Iraq.

Our space needs to have a 360 degree defense perimeter, and anybody other than our people that comes close to the perimeter is eliminated.

Then, we would be free to start bombing hell out of Iran!

    Heck, if we're going to do that, maybe America should invade Iran also. Then let them all dike it out together. When there done, clean up whatever remains.

    Dang it! I did it again. I meant to say "Let them all DUKE it out together." The "I" and "U" are right next to each other on my keyboard. At 1:18 am I tend to get a little sloppy.

    I'll be, they're right next to each other on my keyboard too. I think I smell a conspiracy. [:D][;)]

    A better, and achievable solution to the Iraq war, is to simply pull our troops out and let the Iraqis and their democracy do their own thing.

    Again a distraction! The truth of the matter is there is a small group of radical clerics that have figured out that to prevent the freedom they fear so much they will just instigate a fight among the tribes.

    Democracy brings equality for women. Women are breeding stock to the radical muslims. This radical form of Islam is how they control the flock, like the old Church of England. The focus needs to be on the elimination of the clerics that teach the young people to continue this way of life in their culture. Until this is changed the pipeline will be full of ignorant people willing to die for the clerics.

    If we pull out and "Let em duke it out," the Shiites will easily defeat the Sunnis, there will be an ethnic cleansing, in which all the Sunni women and children will be murdered. The Kurds would be next, then the Shea-controlled Iraq will merge with the Shea-controlled Iran, and Lord help the world oil economy should that happed.

    "BEFORE" the west messed up their country ? Iraq has been messed up for a long time and now America is finally trying to make it right. America didnt "mess up" Japan or Germany, but then again those countries dont have muslims

    Hussein, who is Sunni, needed the Shiites as a labor force to produce the oil, so he kept the radical Sunnis in check with strong-armed, brutal techniques. Saddam had no compunction in executing one (or hundreds) of Shiites if they got out of hand. He didn't need the Kurds, so he murdered them at his leisure. Sad to say, but it was Saddam and his jack-booted, iron-* ways that kept the country from secular genocide.
    The Shiites have been oppressed for a long time, and I fear they now think it is pay-back time. If the US leaves, the US supplanted puppet government will fail, and anarchy will result, in that those (the Shiites) that have the numbers and bigger sticks and will eventually "cleanse" the nation of Sunnis, and possibly the Kurds also.

    Make it "right"?

    We can't even make our own country right--crime is rising, abortions are available even down to the high school level, illegal wiretapping, violations of the Constitution, and you have the chutzpah to say we know what is better for other countries.

    You need to let those Iraqis know we are making their country right--after all, they now have Purple Fingers, right?--no electricity, no garbage pickup, no employment, torture is rising, and security is terrible, but THEY HAVE PURPLE FINGERS. LMAO.
