It's not a 'sound bite' binary answer set. No cut and dried yes or no solutions.

The Kurds in what was northern Iraq are REALLY pissing off the Turks.

The remaining self motivated Bathists are well funded and don't mind using the religious zealots if it's cost effective (and it is).

The Sunni see this as a time to take control of the entire country and punish the old Bathist secular state officials. Majority rule and all that.

The flypaper crap/thought pseudo policy has not panned out.

No coherent single administration, or opposition, effort is covering this Medusa. Americans make poor policemen. See the United States for graphic examples.

Considering for the moment that Iraq was an artificial construct, ignoring tribal/historical propensities, that your friends the British imposed on the region it may benefit everyone to examine where this festering sore came from.
