Why End the Muslim on Muslim Fighting, be it Baghdad or Gaza City?

Dr Pipes

We should create a system of perpetual equilibrium.

The American Government remove Saddam Hussein in order to let the Iraqians choose their leaders and what happens.....

The Isreali Government withdrew from Gaza in order to let the Gazans choose their leaders and what happens...

Muslim on Muslim fighting, killings, explosions, horrible things and ugly deaths and ugly stories.

Maybe I am not 100% correct in my simplification but we are seeing a cleavage between factions:

Hamas v Fatah

Sunni v Shia

I do not know if Hamas is Sunni or Shia or if Fata is Sunni or Shia but we are seeing the fruition of their cultures.

My Idea:

1) Remove the Americans and the British from the cities and move them into the desert in order to make it harder for the terrorists to hurt them

2) Allow Iran to arm the Shia

3) Allow the Saudis to arm the Sunnis..... and let them fight it out.

4) When one side is coming close to achiving victory either the US or the Israeli Special Op Forces will assist the other side to maintain the system in a set of perpetual equilibrium.

This will keep Al Qaeda very busy and give us a respite.
