#1 "The Iraqi government has blamed Syria for harboring former Baath party members, who it said planned the August attacks, and asked for their handover."

Why just use diplomacy? You are a bigger country with a better military. Threaten them.

They should also seek reparations from all their fellow arab countries in the Maghreb whose citizens have come to Iraq to blow up her people.

#2 Maghreb is North Africa (Tunis, Algeria, Morocco). You meant Arabian Peninsula?

#3 Actually, I did mean it as North Africa. Many jihadis are from there unless I'm wrong. Because there are no better opportunities for guys who live in those countries.

#4 Jihadis may be from N Africa, they may be from Syria, they may be from Arabia but they all have a certain religion.

Its not Methodist.

Is this a guessing game, Lord Garth? May I play?

It's Amish, right?

No, not Amish. Shriners I believe, riding go-carts in formation. I blame them.

#7 Actually, just about every country that has a Muslim population has contributed to the terror war in Iraq. Instead of sending reparations, they should all commit to sending a battalion of troops to support the Iraqi army. The US should remain to coordinate and train. The non-Iraqi forces can all go home after Iraq has gone six months without a suicide bomb attack or IED explosion.
