Is there a need to move beyond government-Malki?
The time has come to take decisive action in Iraq
«The Washington Times» By : James Lyons-Supreme Commander of the American fleet earlier

One of the basic objectives in the security plan for Baghdad by American General David Berr íos, restore stability and normal civil life of the Iraqi society, and to achieve this objective, it must stop the ethnic cleansing of Iraqis year in western Baghdad's suburbs, insurance and the central region in the capital on the banks of the Tigris River and then starting after the completion of such military targets, some work for the restoration of infrastructure services.
It seems that this emergency plan Berr íos achieved reasonable success, it says a recent study by the International Institute for Strategic Studies in London, said that ethnic violence unit retreated, and schools, which were repaired the damage suffered by, and reopened for students, local workers were hired to clean the streets and repair of the drainage network.
In Anbar, coalition elders year with the American forces against Al Qaeda terrorists.
The truth is that what is happening in Baghdad and Ramadi could become a good example of application in other places in Iraq.
However, the continuation of this success now depends on the government of Nuri al-Maliki, all the improvements made in the area of security, infrastructure and economic activity until this moment had been the result of the efforts of the American military, financial, did not participate in the central government whatsoever.
Therefore, the sons of Ramadi needed now to help their government, they want-after the control of fire-restoration of basic services such as electricity, water, and reopening of schools, and they need money for reconstruction, but it seems that the Iraqi government dominated by Shiites. not interested because of the pressures of sectarianism secure these basic services to the population of Anbar, mostly because of the year.
This is not unusual in Iraq, where most members of parliament do not believe in the Constitution, which approved it only ink on paper, since it maintains relations sectarian, tribal and clan are affecting the course of events more than work what is best for Iraq.
Certainly, the new American Ambassador Ryan Crocker and General Berr íos feel frustrated now that realized that the tendency of tribalism, not reconciliation, which will determine Mastphalah Iraqi government and does not do.
Berr íos General has stressed more than once that the success of the American attempt to secure stability in Iraq can not be achieved through military action, but work in the political arena as well.
However, the president of the Iraqi government, which must reform his administration and nation-building to ensure a stable political climate, shown so far inability or desire to attention to Iraq instead of Iraq clan and sectarian.
For this particular matter can no longer wait Maliki more, there is now a need to plan beyond sectarian government, and restore stability to Iraq by enabling Iraqis to do so themselves, and here can be applied Anbar example, any use of Iraqi society to generate the same stability, The first step in this area is to identify the tribal leaders Sunnis and Shiites who have the courage to work with our forces to achieve the common goal of eradicating Al Qaeda in Iraq and restoring security to the people, and act anew to build their shattered.
If the clan elders showed willingness to cooperate, as did Senate Ramadi, could then securing the funds necessary sources of the American military in order to restore basic services and infrastructure. If this approach proves successful then can be applied in the rest of Iraq.
But to ensure the success of this process must immediately address the lawless elements inciting sectarian violence and ethnic cleansing.
Of course, we must eliminate al-Qaeda fighters and to convince the Syrians that their best interest not to allow volunteers to cross from their borders, and this can be achieved using American air power and other technical means.
It should make a concentrated effort to identify and neutralize elements of sectarian militias that penetrated the Iraqi security forces and police units and the Ministry of Interior, and also to isolate Sadr City and the elimination of the army, such action makes Muqtada al-Sadr personally no value in the political process.
On the other hand, there is now strong evidence of Iranian involvement in providing cargo exploded extremists Sunnis and Shiites, therefore no longer possible to ignore Iran's declaration of war on the United States continuing, in fact, since November 1979, Our dies as a result of such shipments traps and training, supply provided by Iran of these extremists, It is here to be persuaded that Iran continued to weaken the stability of Iraq would be charged more than can be earned from this.
The time has come to exercise real pressure on Tehran using multifaceted approach that combines «Canes military tumor», economic sanctions and support for the region of those millions of Iranians who despise the mullahs arbitrary and repressive regime.
