Iraq is a country that is made up of various ethnicities and sects; it has always been like that and always will be, and no one group, however powerful and long-lasting, will be able to subdue all other groups.

The same can be said of America. So what?

Recognize the inalienable rights of individuals not collectives. Constuct a constitution, government, and court system to uphold those rights. Dismantle collectives when they are destructive to those rights.
