What can be best solution about situation of Iraq,since nobody is happy with US presence including US people.

Question

More than three years have been passed to the invasion of US and allied forces for establishing peace in Iraq. But no amicable solution of Iraq problem is forthcoming. Even US people is also not happy with the situation and calling for pull out of US forces at the earliest. Iraq is now under civil war with different ethinic groups. So what can be the solution acceptable to all parties involved ?

Answer 1

most of the US people want to finish the job in Iraq, except for the enemy sympathizers who are ungrateful for all the sacrifices of other Americans.

Answer 2

The only good solution for Iraq is that we stay there long enough for the Iraqi children to grow up. The only type of leadership in Iraq before the US invasion was either leadership by force, or leadership by religion. The religion was largely controlled by a government that led by force, so as you see, there was no good leadership. The US doesn't have great leadership either, but at least it's elected. As the saying goes; You can't teach an old dog new tricks.
On top of that, I think we should stay there until we go an entire year without an attack on our men. As long as we're being attacked, we've got a job to do.

Answer 3

Why can't the government heads get together and decide what's best for their country? If they could agree on the distribution of oil amongst the Shihites, Sunnies and Kerds, If they would and the people are willing to think logically, it could be for the betterment of their country. Americans have a done a lot that isn't reported. They have built schools and improved various infrastructure and given them a start with all the billions we have spent.Until they (The Iraqi's) have a strong leader who doesn't mickey mouse around, it won't work. I suppose, it's a much more differicult problem than one can imagaine. The sad thing is Americans are paying for this in blood. The biggest mistake was that Bush should've sent a lot more troops over there to begin with.

Answer 4

First one has to define "when the job is done." For some very odd reason there is no definition. That's like waiting for the end to the war on crime.

The best definition of "the end" is when Iraq can take care of itself. The Iraqi president came up with June 2007. Defense Secretary Gates came up with Fall 2007.

Answer 5

I'm with "OLD GUY" on this. Your making this sound like 'Nam again. It's always a good scare tactic for getting out of something tough. I don't want those boys coming home with the same thing we Vets got. "YOU GUYS ARE THE ONLY ONES TO LET AMERICA LOSE A WAR." Don't want that mentallity and leave the fighting to those on the ground and those who are in charge. (i.e. the generals) If the "people" and "congress" get their fingers in it, we are going to screw the pooch again. If your not happy about it, keep it to yourself or others that think like you. Our men and women in Iraq have computer's over there and they don't need to read all this happy horse sh*t. So butt out.

Answer 6

Thx to U.S. illegal invasion, we now in situation we're damned if we do, and we're damned if we don't !!

It's unfortunate today that we HAVE to stay not only to see the job through.. having said that, whether U.S. will remains to be seen given past experience..(WHAT experience? OH.. WITHDRAWING 77% of U.S. troops from the REAL source of this war on terrorism from AFGHANISTAN in 2003 to go and illegally invade Iraq leaving thier "allies" to try and sort the problem out there grossly under-manned and under-resourced...etc)..

THEN we will have to help rebuild Iraq by way of a "show of good faith" and to say sorry to the innocent people of Iraq for the damage we helped create...in order to start to rebuild ANY sort of entente cordial with them again no matter how basic !!

Hopefully the U.S. govt will practise some show of concilliatry behaviour towards the Iraqi people for the future instead of this 100% show of arrogance... "we-are-the-best"... and shock and awe if you don't agree with us attitude...

I have a question up about thier "do as I say not as I do" when it comes to thier Global Gag Rule and foreign aid policy.. doesn't bode well for the future...and I just used 1 example..

Learn from the Northern Ireland example.. its taken 35 YEARS to realise that the future is in the children...changing the past takes generations.. letting go of the anger and hurt at the "invasion of thier country" as they see it is an uphill struggle..

Answer 7

There isn't one now. The best solution would have been not to start the whole mess in the first place. Anyone with any knowledge of the Middle East could have told Bush that.

Answer 8

Ah, so soon you all forget, or is it you are just too young to remember. Saddam brought death and destruction down on himself.

For years, he arrogantly told the UN to go to Hell. He was given numerous chances over several years to allow full inspections for WMD's. He would not allow full and complete inspections. During all that time, I think he moved the weapons he had to Syria or buried them in the Iraqi desert. He did not think anyone had the balls to finally give him an ultimatum and follow through with military action if he did not comply with the UN sanctions. After 9/11, he gambled wrong. 9/11 changed the playing field on a world scale. Also if Colin Powell had not stopped General Norman Schwarzkopf during the Kuwaiti conflict, this last conflict would not have been necessary. You need to understand that we are at war, and thank God, our Military, and our President for making the hard decisions it takes to keep conflicts overseas and not in our streets.

Please read the following;

General Hawley, is a newly retired USAF 4 star general. He commanded the Air Combat Command (our front-line fighters and bombers) at Langley AFB, VA. He is now retired and no longer required to be politically correct. A true patriot!

"Since the attack on 9-11, I have seen, heard, and read thoughts of such surpassing stupidity that they must be addressed. You've heard
them too. Here they are:

1) "We're not good, they're not evil, everything is relative."

Listen carefully: We're good, they're evil, and nothing is relative. Say it with me now and free yourselves. You see folks, saying "We're
good" doesn't mean, "We're perfect." Okay? The plain fact is that our country has, with all our mistakes and blunders, always been and always will be the greatest beacon of freedom, charity, opportunity, and affection in history.

2) "Violence only leads to more violence."

This one is so stupid you usually have to be the president of an Ivy League university to say it. Here's the truth, which you know in your heads and hearts already: Ineffective, unfocused violence leads to more violence. Limp, panicky, half measures lead to more violence. However, complete, fully thought through, professional, well executed violence never leads to more violence because, you see, afterwards, the other guys are all dead. That's right, dead. Not "on trial," not
"reeducated," not "nurtured back into the bosom of love." Dead.

3) "The CIA and the rest of our intelligence community have failed us."

For 25 years we have chained our spies like dogs to a stake in the ground, and now that the house has been robbed, we yell at them for
not protecting us. Starting in the late seventies, under Carter appointee Stansfield Turner, the giant brains who get these giant ideas decided that the best way to gather international intelligence was to use spy satellites. "After all, (they reasoned,) you can see a license plate from 200 miles away." This is very helpful if you've been attacked by a license plate. Unfortunately, we were attacked by humans. Finding humans is not possible with satellites. You have to use other humans. When we bought all our satellites, we fired all our humans, and here's the really stupid part. It takes years, decades to infiltrate new humans into the worst places of the world.

4) "These people are poor and helpless, and that's why they're angry at us."

Uh-huh, and Jeffrey Dahmer's frozen head collection was just a desperate cry for help. The terrorists and their backers are rich. The poor helpless people, you see, are the villagers they tortured and murdered to stay in power. Mohammed Atta, one of the evil scumbags who steered those planes into the killing grounds is the son of a Cairo surgeon.
But you knew this, too. In the sixties and seventies, all the pinheads marching against the war were upper-middle-class college kids who grabbed any cause they could think of to get out of their final papers and spend more time drinking. It's the same today.

5) "Any profiling is racial profiling."

Who's killing us here, the Norwegians? Just days after the attack, The New York Times had an article saying dozens of extended members of the gazillionaire bin Laden family living in America were afraid of reprisals and left in a huff, never to return to studying at Harvard and using too much Drakkar. I'm crushed. Please come back. Let's all stop singing "We Are the World" for a minute and think practically. I don't want to be sitting on the floor in the back of a plane four seconds away from hitting Mt.Rushmore and turn, grinning, to the guy next to me to say, "Well, at least we didn't offend them."

SO HERE'S what I resolve: Never to forget our murdered brothers and sisters. Never to let the relativists get away with their immoral thinking. After all, no matter what your daughter's political science professor says, we didn't start this. Have you seen that bumper sticker that says, "No More Hiroshima’s"? I wish I had one that says, "No More 9/11's".

Answer 9

I am a soldier and most of the Iraquis I talk to want us to stay till our job is done.Most intelligent Americans feel the same.Its just the media lapdogs and socialist politicians who want us to leave before the job is done.They feel they can regain the white house if we can call Iraq a loss.

Answer 10

You are using a typical liberal bully tactic when you sat "nobody is happy". You are wrong, and the best thing is to keep fighting the terrorist scum in Iraq so they are busy there instead of killing you here. Remember islamofascists want to kill liberals first because of their indecent lifestyle, so be glad you are being protected...
