A NEW plan for Iraq

digg:".$title."  reddit:A NEW plan for Iraq 

When it comes to the catastrophe in Iraq, it's easy to recognize a bad idea but harder to offer a good one. Bush's "more of the same, only worse" strategy is so dead wrong that even Tony Blair is heading in the opposite direction.

What does make sense for Iraq? We put a plan forward in a CeasefireCampaign ad last year calling for a N.E.W. Plan in Iraq. That's

Negotiate with all Iraqi factions and neighbors

Empower the International Community to lead talks

Withdraw responsibly under terms supported by the Iraqi people

Why? Any solution in Iraq will be primarily political and international, not militaristic and unilateral.

I think we've got to be ready to do right where they've done wrong. "They broke it, they fix it" just isn't going to help the people of Iraq or the region. So what is the world prepared to do if the US Congress finally stops the madness of King George? What do we want our governments to do?
