If it's gonna stick, it has to be Iraqi-only. THEY have to want it. And it seems pretty clear they don't.

Makes me think of the mom who carries her baby around all the time. Does that baby start learning how to walk on his/her own? Probably not - as long as Mom's there to carry him/her. Why should he/she bother trying to do it when Mom's always there to carry him/her around?
