>>" As I mentioned earlier, Iraqis know who they are. So it is Iraqis who must distinguish between those who would strive for a common goal vs those who would seek dominance as a subgroup. Some stability must be obtained so that Iraqis themselves can make a decision where they stand. There is still quite a bit of personal vascillation because they aren't sure they would be safe under the new government. We can facilitate this by using our military to make it as safe as possible for Iraqis to distinguish and isolate the oppositional forces. The option of agreeable particians is also within the realm of consideration to achieve this same outcome. Then, we continue to bolster the Iraqi security forces so that the need for our military support is gradually reduced. In the mean time the Iraqi culture has to be invitational toward those who've been marginalized by the conflicts so that there are realistic venues to build a stable and inclusive community. "<< Terrific!!...great "smack".
