There IS no solution to the mess we've caused there. Getting our forces out will probably help, but the fact is, we've significantly destablized the country and installed a government that doesn't have anything like a mandate from its people. Iraq have to go through years, possibly decades of war to get its feet under it again. And America won't give a damn once we've got our people out of harms way.

Not true, there is still a lot of oil there..... and I can guarantee if it is threatened, between now and '08 Bush will move the troops back in.
Plus, if there is a free for all, Bush's arrogance will want to capitalize on it and show everyone "how bad things are because we left". Which is bs because it doesn't matter when we leave the result will be the same ....... civil war and instability. Unless Iran just moves in and takes over our spot.
