pick a side. the sunnis and shiites are tearing the place apart. one has to 'win' the other has to 'lose'. they can't both be in power. we aren't talking dems and reps here.
Danzig,
You might find it interesting that at Najarif (sp) this past weekend, the Sunni and Shia were united...together firing against our military.
That whole situation is too confused.
We can't help with the rebuilding at this point.
We can offer air support to the Iraqi army, but then they shoot down our Black Hawks with rpg's.
Iraq won't start healing until we redeploy. Then, later, maybe...we can send in people to restore the water and electric.
So much of what's really going on doesn't appear in the US media.
It's a mess, and our continued presence isn't helping. Our guys are in a shooting gallery...and that makes no sense at all.
