Oh great, we can't manage our own affairs, let's manage other nations'! While at it, let's vote to destroy the ugly Stalinist skyscrapers in Moscow and all other formerly Communist cities! In San Francisoc or New York it takes envoronmental impact reviews, commissions, hearings, community protests, endless lawsuits, to raise some old shack, but in Baghdad, why, a stroke of a pen, law of the land! Let's make Iraq the 52nd state too!
I assume you already have Israel marked down as the 51st state, ala Bill Buckley's proposal of way back when, thus making Iraq the 52nd.
