Their right! However, that is exacatly what Bush plans to do. I bet my bottom dollar that he will CLAIM VICTORY and just run -- knowing that the cameras will return to the states and nobody will be the wiser. He will then blame, whatever news filters through, it on the "new" Iraqi self-governing bodies as to why the country remains in shambles with added "however we left them in a pretty good situation." -JH

Without some and organizational form in America's place, one like NATO, the United Nations or the League of Arab Nations, Yes, it likely would become a disaster. I guess Bush's folly has created a scenario whereby it's disaster vs. disaster--take your pick! I'm of the belief that creating two nations--a Shite nation and a combo of Kurds, Sunnis and Shites--out of Iraq is the best way to solve the problem. Both nations would have access to the Persian Gulf and would share, according to respective populations, in the oil resources. But I'll tell you one good starting first step for anything meaningful to appen: Get America's Republicans away from grabbing all of those important Iraqi infrastructure and oil contracts.
