NOt that different from my timetable solution. Only differences is that i refuse to look at this in the moral context you do and i want to give war one more chance in falujah. What if things get better after falujah, not worse? Dont you even see that as a possibility? mike

I would add that a multi-cultural leadership group - including heavy representation from religious leaders, be brought together from countries from the surrounding region, including Iran and Syria, all bordering countries.

Some of the fighters are from those countries. If the leaders from Iraq and other countries can be convinced that we are undoing a "great wrong", I suspect they would actively work to restore peace and normalcy to the *people of Iraq*.

There has to be a way go engage the region in moving forward.

I have never believed that invading a country and force feeding some version of our democracy upon it is that way.
