I like the idea of transfering peace keeping to a joint UN-Iraqi force. It would seem like a fresh start and a positive transition.

What's worse then this crackpot mayor is the recent bombing of the shia mosque and the shia retaliation on sunnis mosques. That's bad juju for sure!

*Maybe* splitting up Iraq along ethnic lines would be a good thing. It's borders were established arbitrarily anyhow. I don't know enough about the consequences though to comment further. I know that Iranian influence in the Shia region would grow, Turkey would be pissed because of kurdish steps towards an Independant Kurdistan, and that the Sunni regions would grow closer to Syria, which is Sunni and Ba'ath...

O'reilly is a hothead anyway. He sometimes makes good points, but mostly he's just into himself.
