Answer 2

I would pick a side to back: Sunnis, Kurds or Shiites and put all my military and political influence in putting that group in power as a government. Then, in that negotiations would be made to give the two losing groups some of what they want--whether that be land, oil, or?through a bargaining table.
The Us would take over the land-Iraq- a land without a gov't and install one. Just like we run the tow territories we have. Then our military would have a specific purpose in Iraq and would know exactly what the US is doing there and achieving there.
Until the US takes a side and puts our energy into that position this will go on and on and on just like Korea-Vietnam conflicts.
And by the way democrats: most of all the wars or conflicts the USA has been involved in were the result of a DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENT'S Decision to put us in the war. SO, I sure wish you'd shut up about this president until your see that there's poopoo in your own backyard! and it stinks too!

Answer 3

I would stop listening to congress, since most of them have no military experience whatsoever. It's like having a medical doctor tune your piano- the piano won't play right because the doc doesn't have experience with it. Then I would let my top General make and carry out his strategies. If it would help him, I would suspend the Geneva Convention for a week so our soldiers can get in there and get the job done.

Answer 4

The first thing I would do is invite the leaders of Iran, Iraq, Israel, Pakistan, Jordan, Afghanistan, and Syria to Camp David, and I would invite Dr Phil to come and talk to them. Within 48 hours, there would be peace in the Middle East

Answer 5

More pressure needs to be placed on the sitting Iraqi government to take the reigns. Seems like there is too much talk and not enough action. Also, Iraq is like a firing range for any lunatic suicide bomber from anywhere in the Middle East to visit and blow him/herself up for the glory of....whatever. This won't change for decades to come (except that it will reach our shores, eventually). No amount of transplanted democracy is ever going to change this mentality. Their "mission" is as urgent to them as ours is to us.

Answer 6

well i wouldn't be president ( i couldn't lie that good ) --- but seeing as we were rid of the ' dictator ' --- and he's been hung --- and there are no weapons of mass destruction ( the biggest con of all time --- more lies see ! ) and innocent lives are being lost --- regardless of them signing up for the military ( you know what you get into when you do ) .
we simply should leave the lazy bastards to look after their own back yard --- everyone has done enough --- and we don't need to be ' kidded ' into thinking that " mission accomplished " is the flavour of the day --- bullshit !! --- the flavour of the day is get the hell out of there --- there will be no winners in this war --- just like Vietnam . and don't forget the united nations never ,ever sanctioned this " war " .

Answer 7

same thing as Joseph Stalin did to maintain the Satelite nations of Soviet Union. With tanks and Cult of Personality.
Hey! he did a pretty darn great job on it, as Soviet Union rised into a superpower from a backward country.

Answer 8

Answer 9

War rationing, war bond drives, conscription, "victory" gardens, etc.

You know, all that stuff that brought Americans behind the war effort in WWII.
