Iraq is where the US wants it to be. This quote from Peter Lee (who?):
“The neocon think-tank recipe for Iraq–a federated sack of sand without control of its own military, security, or intelligence portfolios–is seemingly ripped from the cookbook Ariel Sharon wrote for Palestine. In both instances, the intent is to impose a weak, compromised leader conspicuously beholden to a foreign power, thereby guaranteeing an impotent, illegitimate, and insecure state providing ample and continuous pretexts for foreign interference and control.”
Other way of saying it: the US won’t be leaving any time soon, and has no intentions of helping Iraq stand on its own two feet. Got that?!
