The bitter fact is; it was us who brought them to power and gave them legitimacy through elections.That's very cool. In the midst of the heartbreak and the unending violence ITM knows it's not Iran's fault, and Iraq can't blame Syria. The Palestinians could use that bit of wisdom.
....I believe that America would like to see Iraq emerge as a model for the region and is working hard to find a way to solve the current crisis. But that cannot be done without having a cooperative Iraqi partner on the ground who shares similar views for Iraq and the middle east. And that's the point; that partner does not exist, at least not in the government.
....And I don't think Iraq's neighbors would instruct their representatives (their servants in Iraq) to give America a hand, even though they pretend to be heading in that direction because their vision for Iraq and the region are fundamentally in conflict with that of America. They want to see America defeated in Iraq and that's of course at the expense of Iraq.
This is, once again, my favorite source of info re Iraq's situation.
