Face it. You have nothing but BS to offer. You can't offer a single substantiated fact about the Baker plan. NOT ONE!!!!

Not one fact about the ISG Plan? Hmmm, how about all of those links that say the countries in question will NOT support partitioning (which is exactly what the ISG Plan is). Well, here's some more that says the Bush admin is against the idea too.

Now here is a graphical representation of the ethnic makeup of Iraq. Also remember that these ethnic groups do not stop at the geopolitical border of Iraq, that they extend well into the neighboring countries. Now you get a much better picture of of how those ethnic groups can have a major impact on the neighboring countries and the region itself.
As you can see, an ethnic partition is just not possible as it impacts the other countries in the region and creates potential for their own social unrest.
Now here is the history of the ISG, and will fill in the obvious holes that Johnny is missing, and when I say missing, I mean not even aware of.

Oh, and finally, just to push Johnny over the edge, the ISG Plan does indeed follow through on my suggestion of including the Syrians and Iranians in the solution, as it is in their best interest to maintain Iraq in one piece.

It sucks, but the only way to stabilize the region is to allow the regional powers to find the solution, not some over-the-hill hasbeen politicans in America. The United States screwed up the region, now someone has to clean up their mess.
