The best exit strategy is to divide the waring tribes of Iraq into two different states, a Sunni state and an Shitte state, and leave a number of troops in the Sunni state to help with security as we do in other places such as S. Korea. Fact or Fiction?

How do we expect to divide the country into 2 different states? We act as if it is our duty to tell people how to run THEIR countries.
So we will spend 3 to 5 years trying to create this state divide, losing more soldiers AND Iraqi citizens, for what, to build a wall between 2 different tribes. To create another Berlin Wall, which we fought so hard to have brought down. Now we will be the country to build walls between families. That doesn't sound patriotic. It sounds foolish.
Our solution isn't the right solution, because our presense over there is the problem. It is instigating the fighting and gives reason for all the people that do not like us in the Middle East to wage war against our soldiers. Until our government understands that, and steps back (at least militarily), the Iraqi people won't concentrate on trying to resurrect THEIR country.
