1 - THERE IS NO "WINNING". 2 - THE US IS THE ILLEGAL INVADER!
Geez!
And the only way the Israel model works is if you kill them all. If the US is willing to do that, I suppose the US will "win".
Otherwise, there is no "win" in this situation, the Kurds, Sunnis and Shiites will see to that, first agains the US and then against each other.
Unless, as I said, you're willing to kill them all. And their brothers and there cousins. Their wives and daughters, too. And the grandparents.
And, somehow, I think that's an attractive option for neo-cons, except for the 'nattering nabobs of negativism' who would find that offensive and therefore 'want them to win'.
