Garry,

Are you suggesting that one should bring back another Saddam?

Big K,

If the US does not remake and stabilises Iraq, then there will be an independent Kurdistan and the whole area will then simply blow up and NATO will go for a six.

It may not sound nice, but if there is an independent Kurdistan, then the Islamists in Turkey will gain 'power' since the US would be blamed.

It will undo everything Ataturk stood for!

and while the US may have been able to remove Saddam, it would have made many normal countries like Turkey become another Islamist area hitting out at the US!
