How To Get Out of Iraq

Well I have an idea for this. First thing we do is, put it to the men and women are serving over there. If they want to stay, as some of them do, let them. If they want to go home, as some of them do, let them. AS I understand it, some of them do and some don't. Let them decide as it is their lives they are risking.

Second phase is:

Take those remaining troops and (1) Secure the Northern, Kurdish area as it appears that they are our only real allies and we have fucked them over once already, and (2) Secure the area around the Baghdad Airport. Then set up a 10-mile wide (or however wide it needs to be) kill zone from the airport to Kuwait in which if a person enters, they will be killed. Make this public knowledge. We cordon off the area with barbed wire, and station several high-resolution satellites over this strip. Anyone enters: dead. Thus no surface-to-air missiles can be fired at any incoming flight traffic. Much like the Berlin Airlift, this would enable us to send troops/supplies and also enable us to help out any friendly Iraqi forces that need it.

Finally, establish a large airbase in the north and one in Kuwait. All air strikes can be called in from there.

Done.
