"We should have turned the Shiites and Kurds loose on the Sunnis."
With the exception of the above I generally agree with you. When we took Baghdad we switched to the Vietnam scenario giving the enemy sanctuaries. We are at war and we should act that way. Our enemies cities should be smoking ruins and their will and ability to fight eliminated. Just like Germany and Japan in WWII. Sadly, there is no other way.

These SOBs are Shia. There are both Shia and Sunni jackasses causing the problems who we don't respond to for PR reasons.

I won't take that one back.
The Sunnis are largely Saddam adherents. They're the folks murdering our troops or paying for it, or giving the murderers sanctuary. They're the leadership of the Ba'ath party. Dead Sunnis would be a good thing... No Sunnis would be better. Only four provinces (aside from Baghdad itself) are giving us trouble - they're majority Sunni provinces.
