The Only Solution in/for Iraq?
Barking Moonbat has posted what might end up being the only realistic solution for Iraq:
(1) Appoint a military governor for the country and give him absolute power, to include public executions if necessary. (2) Send in 100,000 more troops for a six month deployment and wipe out the “insurgency” once and for all. (3) Close and seal the borders with Syria and Iran - station troops on the borders to shoot first and ask questions later. (4) Start pumping oil as fast as possible to pay for all this. (5) Divide the country into three states: Sunnistan, Shiastan and Kurdistan and appoint a regional government over each - US military at first, gradually transitioning to Iraqi civilian control as soon as they act like they really want to govern properly. (6) Send half of the already “trained” Iraqi battalions to Afghanistan to fight Al-Qaeda there and tell them they can come home as soon as they wipe out the Taliban. (7) Disband all Iraqi militias and completely destroy any who object - and that includes Al Sadr’s goons.
Distasteful? You bet. The only answer? Quite possibly.
Oh - and here's number 8: Start holding the mainstream media responsible for publishing fabrications as the truth. (Ref: Getting The News From The Enemy).

At the risk of stating the obvious, or worse, missing some tongue in cheek sarcasm, Saddam would be the man for the job! ;/
