As Iraq's neighbors grapple with the various ideas put forward for solving the country's problems, they uniformly shudder at one proposal: dividing Iraq into separate regions for Sunnis, Shiites and Kurds, and then speeding the withdrawal of U.S. forces.
"To envision that you can divide Iraq into three parts is to envision ethnic cleansing on a massive scale, sectarian killing on a massive scale," Prince Turki al-Faisal, the Saudi ambassador to the United States, said Oct. 30 at a conference in Washington. "Since America came into Iraq uninvited, it should not leave Iraq uninvited."

"When the ethnic-religious break occurs in one country, it will not fail to occur elsewhere, too," Syrian President Bashar al-Assad told Germany's Der Spiegel newsweekly recently. "It would be as it was at the end of the Soviet Union, only much worse. Large wars, small wars -- no one will be able to get a grip on the consequences."
Since the countries in the region know there's a civil war going on and they don't want to get involved then there's no other choice than to give Saddam Hussein is old job back.
You sometimes make huge mistakes in life and Bush and the neoncons should just admit they were dead wrong and that Saddam Hussein is the only stabilizing factor in that whole region.
Just think of all the lives and money we could have saved.
It's called poor leadership and a populace of sheep too ignorant to know better. How sad.
