Thread: What to do with Iraq?

I've heard bomb the whole place to the stone age, leave and let them slaughter each other, etc.

I don't think we have a choice, but to stick it out. If we bomb the whole place we face retaliation on a global level. If we leave and let them duke it out then certainly another dictator will come in and take over cause they're like pimps and feed on the vulnerable. We certainly can't back one of their neighbors, Iran, Saudi or Isreal; we already have done that many times and they always turn around and bite our hands.

The dumbest thing is that there was no plan for what would happen once we had the upper hand. I think they thought we would have to struggle for several more month's before we had to worry about it. We def. need to rethink our strategy because right now we are scaring more Iraqi's than we are helping if we can get them to have more trust in us then they will be more willing to turn over the scum suckers that keep ambushing and sniping our convoy's

Beside Ahmed Chalabi, who has been a disaster - who also was a guest of honor at the State of the Union address.
