Just a few words about the Iraq War.
You may have noticed that Iraq is not mentioned in the presidential campaign, at least by the Democrats; its as if it didn’t exist and soldiers no longer get killed or maimed.
Well the Iraq War is still going on; nothing has changed.
McCain has said that we are winning on all fronts. For that naiveté or shall we call it plain ignorance or stupidity; he should not be elected president.
I have been talking about this for years and everything I have said is still true and happening. The Shia and the Sunnis are not friends; they are still enemies to the death.
The Iraqi government is dysfunctional no matter what McCain says and will remain dysfunctional because the Shiites and the Sunnis will never agree to share power – one must dominate the other.
The killing has stopped – NOT – but we don’t read about as many American casualties as we did before while the Iraqis continue to die on a daily basis but in smaller numbers. The point to remember here is that the “surge” is not working; the clerics have ordered a ceasefire and that is why the killings have ebbed.
The clerics will order the militias to kill as soon as we leave – so what the fuck have we accomplished – not a damn thing.
McCain says we will have to stay in Iraq forever. I have presented a plan of splitting Iraq into three (3) and allow the three to create their own countries; only in splitting the warring factions can any semblance of peace can be achieved but McCain does not want to hear about that.
Oil revenues would have to be shared between the three sectors and only in this way it would not matter if your piece of Iraq had oil on it or not; you would still share in the wealth.
The silence of the Democrats on Iraq at least presupposes a exit plan exists but McCain has announced he has no exit plan – just stay there forever.
At least on this issue (IRAQ) the choice for president cannot be McCain.
