And only station troops there. The Iraq Sunnis and Shiites could then battle it out if they wish.

Since the area the Kurds occupy is very peaceful, we would have little need to send troops there.

The Iraqi Kurds are fighting Turkey, a US ally.
The Kurds want their own country formed from their ethnic peoples in Iraq, Turkey and Iran.
Read some history.

If we just have the troops in safe havens then what is the purpose of being there at all?We need our troops in the hot spots and thats where they want to be in order to keep combating the terrorists.

The lack of planning on Bush's part is the reason for the mess in Iraq. Even a little kid knows you gotta seal off the borders so they don't get infiltrated by outsiders like Iran and Syria. By the way I thought Bin Laden was the reason for 9/11? And why did we go into Iraq again? I seem to have forgotten already??????

Because you are blind to the fact that the Kurds care about nothing except an independent Kurdistan who will ally with Turkey and be just as backwards as they are.
The US always buddies up to brutal regimes when they serve our interests. So don't get mad when they attack us again.
Either way it is nothing for Americans to celebrate. Why not celebrate with Russia when they kill Chechens?
makes no sense.
Move on...

Why station troops where they are not needed?
