Is Iraq America's "tar baby"?
And are the terrorists saying please don't throw us in that briar patch. If the US stays in Iraq we create resentment and incite recruitment into terrorism. If the US pulls out we give them a supposed victory and incite recruitment into terrorism. I suggest we turn the entire problem over to the UN immediately and let the UN with american forces at their disposal handle the rebuilding of Iraq. I don't see establishing a new theocracy in Iraq as a meaningful improvement over what used to be a secular nation with the best educational standards in the region. We are in a pickle just as the GOP wished for... Our hands are tied..
