that country are vicious to women and children. Hell, they're nuts, the whole country will call for the public execution of a man just because he decides he prefers a different flavor of religion.

I'm all for getting out. I frequently wonder if it would be worth it for the Western powers to just walk out of there and let them go back to the Dark Ages (or maybe they've never really left). Let them have their warlords and mysogyny and barbarity and chauvinism (to put it mildly).

Same for Iraq. We fucked that up so bad I don't think anyone can fix it. The three sects can't get along, don't want to get along, and refuse to let the other secede. They sure ain't gonna let the Shias have all the power willingly, they are going to continue this payback of the Sunnis, and the Kurds, well the Kurds are just screwed from the get go. They just don't know it. The bush** admin doesn't care about them. Or an independent Kurdistan. Just the Kirkuk oil fields.

Shit.
