No, I actually meant ... IRAN ... as in the Persian Mullahs ...
Quoting from the article ...
“In Iran, Rouhani raised the prospect of Teheran cooperating with its old enemy Washington to defeat the Sunni insurgent group – which is attempting to ignite a sectarian war beyond Iraq’s borders.”
The final phase of the original Iran-Iraq war.

I had an interesting chat recently with a combat vet—Gulf War 1, Afghanistan since 2005. Here is his idea of reorganizing the military situation.
1) Support the Kurds, get treaty to put our forces in there and phase out Ramstein in Germany. Molify Turkey with more business at Insurlik Airport.
2) In general allow countries in ME to realign into natural ethnic/religious boundries getting rid of artificial colonialist divide-and-conquer boundaries.
3) Rebuild and enhance Indian alliance and dump Pakistan.
4) Get out of Afghanistan soon.
5) No US ground troops in Iraq.
There was more, but I can’t think of it this late. Well, what do you think folks?
