This vexes me. I am terribly vexed.

Now that's funny. The UN bugged out when they lost a few aid workers. They have no stomach for loss and will be wholly incapable of stabilizing Iraq. Additionally they too will be seen as occupiers and the transition to Iraqi rule would be even longer with the UN in charge. Iraqi rule and responsibility for security are the best bet for stabilization and that's the path we've been on since the beginning.
Disagree. They bugged out because they saw the only security force in the country, ours, couldn't protect them. They would take over, with heavy arab support, if we offered it to them.
Terror would decrease because the UN would actually fast track real elections and not install puppet governments or corrupt fuckholes like Chalabi.
