Exactly the only way to control these people is by force. Why force? Because they are primitive and lack reason and only understand force. The United States made a huge mistake removing Saddam. They should have used him instead to control these medieval peasants.

how do you know that it's iraqis killing each other and not some secret blackwater/US thug agency who's carrying out these acts? iraq never had a sectarian issue until the US showed up. Your brain is there for a reason, USE IT!

tell me mr. non-dumbass, why didn't all these bombings happen before the US graced Iraq's soil a decade ago? were suicide bombers afraid that Saddam would "kill" them hahah...
