I say we just drone strike the prison and be done with it. That should appease them.

Yep.

A retired two star told me at the barbershop the other day something that i've thought all along: once we screwed up the place by invading, we were better off breaking the country up into 3 pieces.

Iraq isn't a nation anyway...it's a British creation.

But why are they killing so many of their countrymen? Would'nt they just kind of focus on the enemy? Why so much rape and beheadings? I don't follow how killing children teaches the US a lesson?

Who is their enemy? Which enemy do you want them to kill?

Americans?

Iraq needs to be Balkanized (broken up) into 4 states..

Sunni Arab Muslim
Sh'ite Arab Muslim
Assyrian Christians and Zorastrians in Ninevah province
Kurds of all religions

It is correct that "Iraq" was an artificial creation by the British colonizers. Fake boundaries still cause issues in Africa and South Asian too.

I know right. Thank God the liberals pulled us out of Iraq and A-Stan so quickly. Obama closing Gitmo when he promised was a godsend as well. Drone stike anyone?

Somalia, Yemen, Syria and Lybia whatever.

I frankly do not give rats ass about anyone over there. Is there ever a good excuse for killing your enemies (in your opinion).

Hmmm...

So that means you're for pulling us completely out of Iraq and Afghanistan, and you want Gitmo closed and all drone strikes ended?

Tell me oh great one.
