the descendants of the Babylonians and Abbassids could easily govern themselves
- Close the border with Iran and other bordering states to prevent weapon smuggling
- Put Sunni/Shia Islamists in power
- Get foreign troops out
- stimulate Iraqi culture and Islam so that the people reject a return to chaos and are pre-occuppied with more fruitfull day to day stuff
- pay for the reconstruction and maintain good relations
- Start a programe which will spark the return of Iraq's scientists,entrepreneurs and doctors who have left in large numbers since 2004
from there we could see a new beginning and Iraq might enter a new prosperous era Insha-allah
I agree, except about the "put Sunni/Shia Islamists in power". There were elections more than a year ago in which the majority of the Iraqis participated. Besides, Shia Islamist are already in power. The party that is supported by the highest Shia cleric, Al-Sistani is in power. Who are the Sunni Islamists anyway in your opinion? Aren't they the ones that are attacking these Shiites pilgrims?
I am personally quite confused about the people that are committing these acts. Are this the 'Muhajedeen'? Can anyone call himself a Muhajedeen? Are martyrdom bombings like these valid methods for Muhajedeen? Surely Islamic scholars have an opinion on this?
