40. Iraq was only hobbled together recently. I vote let them go back to tribal rule
That area has been fighting for how many centuries? It can only be ruled by a brutal dictator, and that isn't really helping any nation (much less the general populous of Iraq).


Let it break up like Yugoslavia did (another recently "hobbled" together "country) and let them self rule themselves.


Iraq was broken lonnnnnng before B*** got into it - - yes, he made it wayyyy worse - - but we can't "fix" what was broken even before Dubya got his fingers into the pie.


I think the USA should just pull out with an "Oooops, my bad" and let the factions there determine just what *they* want....
