Are you suggesting that the solution to Iraq's violence lies in Damascus?

Not the whole solution, certainly. But if Saddam's daughter and the other Ba'athists lost their safe haven and their money, and couldn't keep funding the insurgency, it would make a big difference. You can't run a war out of shoebox, and the percent of population in Iraq that actually supports the insurgents is quite small. I don't think insurgent habit of blowing up Iraqis willy-nilly has been winning them many friends either.
