Henry Kissinger remarks on Iraq,

If you have been upset by the remarks that Kissinger said then you should not. The only thing that you should do is to try to find a way to deal with what he said and why he said that. From my side I think the man was right in this and you should listen to reason.
My input today will be about overcoming the civil war that is running in Iraq since the US army could not manage the Iraqi borders and canceled all the security and army forces.
Let me tell you a fact that you might not see now. When the Shia were controlling the ministry of interior affairs Bremer noticed that it is ciaos in the security situation and that the Almehdi militia were not being cracked down by the police because they were thinking that they should not do that to their brothers specially the minister which means “leader” to them was also Shia. That’s why Bremer ordered the change of the interior minister directly and ordered that a Sunni become in that position. The mistakes of the interior ministry have decreased sharply and the problems began to float on the surface from another ministry that being controlled by Shia, which is the defense ministry. Now the ministry of defense are controlling by the Sunnis and there is no problem at all in that ministry. Which means that you should understand that the Sunnis ministers are more efficient in controlling the Shia and the Sunni than the Shia ministers. Even now the interior minister on which we heard that he is trying to be good but the Shia front that is being controlled by Iran is not allowing him to be good and sincere.
I hope that you see these facts that might help you in finding a way to limit the influence of Iran and their proxies in Iraq.
Wish you luck but not greed,
Iraqi expert
