The number one metric for stopping violent opposition is the number of unemployed young males. Our number one goal should be an all out effort to revitalize the Iraqi economy. One step would be a White House conference on purchasing where very large corporations would be asked to begin purchasing modest amounts of light manufacturing from Iraq. This step alone could lead to a 20% improvement in the economy. A second step would be to create an Iraqi Civil Conservation Corps and an Iraqi Works Projects Administration and simply get young men working. It is true that there is today no reliable American agency which could implement these plans. That agency should be invented immediately and given the authority to get the job done. The Second World War was won in less time than we have had since 9/11. It is time to start cutting red tape and challenging the Congress to recognize that we are in a real war and need to move at the speed of a real war.
The Iraqi security forces—military and police—should be doubled in size. Every doctrine for counterinsurgency indicates we need a much larger forces–to-bad-guys ratio than we currently have planned. It is time to quit being cheap and prudent and to start drowning our enemies in resources and energy. If we want to be able to turn the country over to the elected Iraqi government then it has to have a force big enough to defeat all the enemies of the rule of law. We need an offensive military strategy (in concert with a political, diplomatic and economic strategy), with the required resources, to defeat the insurgency, which means the Iraqi people in the contested areas are protected and supported, while the insurgents are isolated
We still have not had a practical overhaul of intelligence adequate to understand and dominate the Iraqi battlefield. We have to establish very tough metrics for intelligence and change the system until they are met.
Iran, Syria and Saudi Arabia must be put on notice that they cannot permit the flow of weapons and money and people into Iraq. We must be prepared to take whatever steps are necessary to force these three dictatorships to back away from supporting the various enemies of the Iraqi government.

| You speak as if there is a problem in Iraq. WTF are you talking about? Everything is great in Iraq. We are winning. Surge succesful. What's there left to do? Declare that we've won and not leave? |

Israel/America is getting their asses handed to them in Iraq now, and it is only going to get worse.
Turn the place into glass or get out! Any other 'solution' will never work.
It is a shame the US must be ruined for Israel's wars. But it's too late for anything else I sadly believe.
BTW. Please put in a word for me to your boss. I'm easily corrupted and inexpensive to hire. |

Your no brighter than the sailor that came down from the poop deck sublimely remarking, " Gee Sir, ain't it grand the wind stopped blowing?" when the hurricane was only half way by. |

Your full of stupid B.S. You have your finger so far up your arse your creating brain damage and bruising your optic nerve. The world played Hell calling off the Israeli war dogs chewing up Hellzsbillyahrd (aka Iran), and the world is playing Hell trying to get America to play puss ball (aka cut and run). The fundamental (emphasis on mental) jerks that have bombed; chided us and bled us FIRST won't quit till they are put down but good (evidenced by 1400 years of aggravation and w/ America since its inception - but I regress, I forget your historically myopic.) It ain't gonna happen. All the blind sedition you can peyuke will do your dumb plethora of inverted and schizoid veils and harping the due justice your piss ant faith deserves. Your a liar.
It is not Israel's war. It is Mohammed's war. This is where all you knuckle heads get it wrong, wrong, wrong. His war started 1400 years ago; long, long before Zionism insulted your delicate senses, and has not ceased yet, may Mohammed's testicles curl in Hell.
Facts have never meant much to you because they can be revised to please and rationalize your mental and emotional sickness. Cripple.
America's war on terrorism did not begin in September 2001. It began in November 1979.
That was shortly after Ayatollah Khomeini had seized power in Iran, riding the slogan "Death to America" - and sure enough, the attacks on Americans soon began. In November 1979, a militant Islamic mob took over the U.S. embassy in Tehran, the Iranian capital, and held 52 Americans hostage for the next 444 days.
The rescue team sent to free those hostages in April 1980 suffered eight fatalities, making them the first of militant Islam's many American casualties. Others included:
April 1983: 17 dead at the U.S. embassy in Beirut.
October 1983: 241 dead at the U.S. Marine barracks in Beirut.
December 1983: five dead at the U.S. embassy in Kuwait.
January 1984: the president of the American University of Beirut killed.
April 1984: 18 dead near a U.S. airbase in Spain.
September 1984: 16 dead at the U.S. embassy in Beirut (again).
December 1984: Two dead on a plane hijacked to Tehran.
June 1985: One dead on a plane hijacked to Beirut.
After a let-up, the attacks then restarted: Five and 19 dead in Saudi Arabia in 1995 and 1996, 224 dead at the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania in August 1998 and 17 dead on the USS Cole in Yemen in October 2000.
Simultaneously, the murderous assault of militant Islam also took place on U.S. soil:
July 1980: an Iranian dissident killed in the Washington, D.C. area.
August 1983: a leader of the Ahmadiyya sect of Islam killed in Canton, Mich.
August 1984: three Indians killed in a suburb of Tacoma, Wash.
September 1986: a doctor killed in Augusta, Ga.
January 1990: an Egyptian freethinker killed in Tucson, Ariz.
November 1990: a Jewish leader killed in New York.
February 1991: an Egyptian Islamist killed in New York.
January 1993: two CIA staff killed outside agency headquarters in Langley, Va.
February 1993: Six people killed at the World Trade Center.
March 1994: an Orthodox Jewish boy killed on the Brooklyn Bridge.
February 1997: a Danish tourist killed on the Empire State building.
October 1999: 217 passengers killed on an EgyptAir flight near New York City.
In all, 800 persons lost their lives in the course of attacks by militant Islam on Americans before September 2001 - more than killed by any other enemy since the Vietnam War. (Further, this listing does not include the dozens more Americans in Israel killed by militant Islamic terrorists.)
And yet, these murders hardly registered. Only with the events of a year ago did Americans finally realize that "Death to America" truly is the battle cry of this era's most dangerous foe, militant Islam.
In retrospect, the mistake began when Iranians assaulted the U.S. embassy in Tehran and met with no resistance.
..and now you and your puss brained ilk whine when the States "Get Down." Fool. |
