If the Iraqis care so little for their country that they allow Iran to take over, then they don’t deserve their country in the first place.

And if they do, then they have the will... coupled with the means (funded through oil money) to keep their country.

Which means that you’d be wrong.

Takes far more than money to keep a country independent. It's been common knowledge for decades that the Shi'ite majority of Iraqis have been sympathetic to Iran (that's one reason why they instituted an Islamic constitution post-election, mind you with great chunks of Saddam-era laws, including identifying Israel as their number-one enemy in the Middle East). It's also been common knowledge that if Mubarak were to be ousted from power in Egypt, that the terrorists would take over there too.

So what am I wrong about? Are you saying that Iran deserves Iraq, simply because of the USA pulling out of Iraq? The terrorists deserve Iraq as a big prize handed to them by the USA with a virtual bow on top?
