John Edwards support for Biden's Plan for Iraq ------>

Today he also suggested that it might make sense to carve Iraq into autonomous Sunni, Shiite and Kurdish regions, but that Iraqis would have to make that decision for themselves. (Democratic presidential candidate Senator Joe Biden has long been a vocal advocates of such a plan. Mr. Biden is expected to visit Iraq this week.)

10. Aaaah, I missed that

I actually don't like the partition idea myself, but the key is really in getting them to just start talking about conciliation. A partition is as good a place to start as any and they can accept it or come up with something better.

13. Biden has said basically the same thing -

they don't have to accept it, he just wants them to talk about it.

16. He's a reasonable person

He wouldn't force anybody to do anything anyway. It's not his style.

24. Pirhana, I think you're awesome!

:loveya: :yourock: good find!

The greatest part of this is that all the candidates have said something like "Joe is right" or "I agree with Joe" on a lot of foreign policy issues. It's good too see that Biden is a contender. They're scared enough to throw shit today as if it's going to do any good.

32. I agree with Edwards. Biden's may be a good idea, but it should come from Iraqis not from Delaware's

Senator.

That's the difference.

What I object to in Biden's plan is our imperialistic imposition of a federal plan on Iraq. If Iraq independently wants the plan, it may well be a good plan.

The fatal flaw in Biden's plan is that it's us telling Iraq their country ought to be Balkanized and how it out be accomplished, not in the idea of Balkanization itself but the imposition of that idea.

Frankly, haven't we screwed with them enough?

34. It's in their constitution.

Whether or not it's our place to tell them or not. They need to get a grip on their country, so we can come home, and not have to worry about it for years to come.

You and everyone are free to disagree with it all you like. but unless someone throws another idea out there, it's all we have to hope for right now.

Just so you know, I'm going to put you on ignore now, because you like to argue, and I'm not in the mood for negativity right now.

35. Well, now it's coming from

a majority of both houses of the U.S. Congress. Hardly from a single Delaware Senator!
