I totally agree with: "He said the U.S. is fighting militant Islam and should not get into an irreconcilable fight between Sunnis and Shiites in Iraq. Brownback said the government should push for a political solution and ****separate Iraq into three regions: Kurdish, Sunni and Shiite. That would cut America's death toll substantially, he said."****
THAT is a prescription for disaster. Considering that Iraq has a Shia majority, it would give rise to another Iran to support terrorism, ally themselves with Iran, give a base to the terrorists and totally destabilize the Middle East.
You can be forgiven for being misguided, but anyone seeking the presidency automtically disqualifies himself for being so incredibly ignorant and proving himself to be a danger to the survival of the US.
Brownback is a bigger stupid ass than Hagel. We are willing guests of the Iraqi government. We don't tell other countries and civilisations what to do. All the U.S. wants is normal country-to-country relations. That's all.
