Well, I hate to say it, but the only way we're going to be able to end this thing is to face Iran. I'm not for more war, but I understand my history enough to know that we lost so many soldiers in Vietnam because we weren't willing to stand up to China--who was at the time supplying weapons and soldiers to the Viet Cong. Iran is fighting a proxy war with us in Iraq. We can either keep that up, which will get more Iraqis and US soldiers killed, or we can face Iran and take care of the problem. Really, we should have faced Iran immidiately after we won the war with Iraq. Because we're not officially at war anymore. We are now basically refereeing a civil war. There's no winning something like that.
