What were they thinking?

The 'Untold Details' of Recent Iranian-U.S. Talks
Baztab News, Islamic Republic of Iran

..."The Iranian team made the case that the presence of occupying troops, their disrespect for Iraq's Constitution and religious beliefs, their undermining of the Al-Maliki Government, the slackened trend of infrastructure reconstruction and facilities and the lack of equipment and training - and hence marginalization - of the Iraqi police and army, are the principal causes of insecurity in Iraq. "..

Hmmm, where do I start with this hucky pucky?

The lack of security in Iraq has everything to do with the fact that Iraqis are trying to hold onto their own oil, and we managed to bumble into fight between the Arabs and the Persians that's been going on for centuries, made worse by their own depletion of oil, and the world's consumption of it.

The US being a leader in the consumption of oil.

If there ever was such a thing in the US as a cohesive group of leaders, they never would have arrogantly allowed our "way of life" to become so dependent on oil that they ever thought that this was an option.
