divide iraq into three independent parts:
republic of kurdistan in the north: heck, they can even have us bases there if they want to prevent attacks by iran or turkey.
republic of mesopotamia in the center: put saddam hussein back in power and let him fight it out with al-qaeda. us troops would leave immediately.
islamic republic of south iraq: give the rest from karbala to basra to the shi'a. us troops would leave immediately.
done. nobody's happy but i bet there would be peace within a year.
Welcome to The Cahokian... A thousand years ago Cahokia — across the Mississippi from what is now St. Louis — was one of the biggest cities in the world. Now it's an empty green spot next to the highway. I'm a middle-aged gay man living in New York City, center of the world, future footnote on somebody's future map. Welcome to the new world.
