#1 Why the present tense?
Iraq became Iranian province the moment George the Well Meaning under the influence of Condoleezza the Brainy rejected the (virtually identical) advice from Saudi king & Ariel Sharon: "Find a nice (i.e. one who'll remember what happened to Saddam) Sunni general, and make him the new Rais.".

#2 Well the Ba'ath Party was booted. The majority of Iraq is Shiite. Iran is largely Shiite. Iran and Iraq are in close proximity. Iran keeps stirring the pot of turmoil in Iraq. Are we handing Iraq to Iran? I'm thinking past tense too.

#3 So the Iraqis are little more than livestock, incapable of making any decisions for themselves?

They, and the rest of Muslims, are perfectly capable of making decisions for themselves---that's why the rest of us been fighting them since Muhammad's times.

#5 Once post-2012 Nuke-WMDS = Nuclear Terrorism starts occurring in CONUS, + prolly NATO-EU as well, the attention of Amers won't be on what happens in Iraq or the ME or Somalia, etc. anymore.

And given the Longer-N-Deeper-than-1929 US, World Econ crisis, + the on-going US Debt crisis + threat of potential default, the scenario is not unreasonable to worry that vital US Milfors will be stranded overseas, unable to help their Families + Home Country because of US econ, budget woes + preoccupation wid campaigns agz local Bad Boyz.

Once Radical Islam elects to begin Nuclear Terror = Nuclear Jihad terrops agz the US per se, the US + Euros will inversely cease being secondary "holding/blocking fronts" vee Jihad agz Russia, China, + India, Africa, etc. peripherals, + start being PRIMARY COMBAT + JIHAD FRONTS.

Again, as per the post-Mubarak "Jasmine" Uprisings Radical Islam has real opportunity to not only takeover the anti-Islamist Govts. of a number of major US Muslim Allies, but espec to take over any pre-Jasmine Civilian Nuclear Energy Programs for Military = Jihadi purposes. IFF-N-WHEN THE US, etc. IS READY TO ATTACK + OCCUPY IRAN, IT MAY PROVE TO BE TOO LATE AS IRAN BY THAT TIME WILL MERELY BE ONE NUKE-WMD SOURCE OF MANY FOR THE MILTERRS.

* Nostradamus Quatrain = "None shall see the powers of Asia destroyed until the Seven/Seventh holds the line".

[BASE-TOO-FAR QATAR here].

Whoa, MOUD + KHAMENI = CRAZY HORSE + SITTING BULL???

Who knew?
