Here's the new plan for Iraq... [View all]

We should send our CIA over there to help assassinate Maliki and current leaders who need to die in order to set up a brutal strong man leader friendly to our interests. He needs to be a real SOB who will crush all dissent. Hell, he could even be the guy we pick to shoot Maliki. Later, if he gets too strong or a major PIA, we can manipulate him into making a mistake that we can use to gin up support for an international force and bomb the country halfway to the stone age. This will weaken him but we can leave him around to continue holding the place together till we can get all the oil out. If necessary we can eventually force him out of power with some trumped up bullshit national security reasons.

Seems like someone would have thought of this already.
