exactly, so guess what needs to happen in Iraq.

and it needs to be people that the iraqi population will respect, no former members of the former dictator ship and no ba'ath members...

that leaves like 10 million people (considering 50% are said to be children)

there's tons of unemployed military types just now who are really looking to take care of their families.

there are leaders who were exiled who have come back..they just need to put everyone in place..

Yep.

unfortunately they don't hold any official position to stop them, that's what our military must do is delegate and appoint temporarily to restore order until some sort of election can be held.

Thou shalt not steal.

Restoring order would not be popular action. It's like taking the "freedom" back.
It would be smart for americans to involve UN forces in restoring order in Iraq.
