To hell with it all...flatten the damn continent and let mother nature take over....i.e. The U.S. Marines. End this stupid "war" and lets get back to football

There's no quick solution to a problem like Iraq, a steady hand-over of power to the Iraq government is the best option for success. The only alteration to the plan for me would be when the Iraqi government believes its time to run the country safely then pull the troops out of cities and into bases like the "Federal" plan but have a whole Iraqi nation, instead of trying to split it up.

If we could have any confidence in their "Government".....

As long as a presence is maintained outside of the cities any possible uproar could be dealt with. The course of action now should be a quick development of Iraq and leaving with a minimal amount of backlash. The problems are numerous and the civilians are not helping, to be honest. In Afghanistan, the REMEs attached to the Para Battle Group wanted to plumb in a washing machine given to a hospital by the Americans but they were not allowed because they were a military outfit. The Afghans would have thought more of the troops if they saw them helping [we hope] but the civilians were stopping them, and after several months to washing machine was still not plumbed in.
