Some Alternatives in Iraq

That girlie-man General Petraeus couldn't win an engagement if he were fighting my grandmother's bridge club. Here are some real strategies:

1) Make hostile Iraqi neighborhoods dissapear, cracking down on any media coverage.

2) Give the Kurdish north to Turkey and proclaim the rest the new nation of Babylon (building a new capital on top of old Babylon, of course).

Either way, the territory must be handed over to a group of powerful individuals who can control the contry with an iron fist to ensure order and stability. Really, we should have just left Saddam in power. Threat to US national security my ass.
