A tough task considering there are people with a vested interest in making not work, are free to infiltrate the police forces at their leisure.

The leadership is a circus, because of the Americans. They marginalise and try to kill anyone who is popular

Like who?
I agree though, the Americans are pretty hypocritical when it comes to how they measure out support for gov'ts.

Inter-cooperation amongst Iraqis is a stand up act, because of the Americans. They are the ones that stirred up sectarianism, pitting one group against the other.

I find that very unlikely. Just from the Shia threads here that rage on forever, slandering one side or the other. The Americans didn't create violent tensions between the two groups. It was a characteristic of Saddam's rule. He kept a lid on it though through brutal oppression.

The Americans need to get out of Iraq... now.

You still haven't answered how things would look if they did that. It would be good for the US probably, they wouldn't be losing the money as they are now, not to mention any more American lives. But do you really think that everyone in mixed areas of Iraq would let bygones be bygones and usher in a new era of peace and stability? And if so, how?
