"Difference is that stability in Iraq is in our best interests."

We had stability with Saddam. We're the ones who caused the instability, by deposing Saddam's Sunni government and installing a Shia one. If we left, instability in Iraq would no longer be in Iran's interest. Not that they could "stabilize" the place!

I don't think ANYBODY can stabilize Iraq until a lot of blood has been shed in their civil war. The sooner we leave, the less of it will be ours..
