| #2 If we put serious pressure on Iran, Syria folds. If we take out Syria it doesn't do much to Iran (except cover our backs). I prefer a combination of David Warren's plan and my own. Divide Iraq into three ethnic chunks (still considered part of a single weak Iraq) and put dictators we can deal with in charge of those chunks. They can beat down their own people if they need to. Then promote the independence of the ethnic Kurds and Shia Arabs in neighboring Iran. Help them with air power and special forces if required. I think Iran will collapse if we push the right ethnic buttons. And those with ethnic minorities in the neighborhood would be put on notice. |

| #1 The Iraq Study Group has recommended that we engage the other powers in the region, namely Syria and Iran. Well, how about we engage the Syrians with several US Army and Marine divisions? Someone put this man in charge. |
