The TrekMedic is Better Than Kim Jong Il??

Well, according to Time Magazine, the TrekMedic is the Person of the Year, beating out the likes of James Baker, Kim Jong Il, and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad!

OK,...if that's the case, in lieu of the annual TrekMedic's New Year's Revolutions, here's how the world will shape up in 2007 if he has his way:

On the subject of Iraq:

• The US military will withdraw all of our forces from Baghdad and establish bases in Mosul and Kirkuk.
• The United States will help establish a sovereign and independent Kurdistan.
• Then, the United States will sit back and let Muqtada al-Sadr's mad Madhi Army and the Sunni/Ba'athist militias beat each other silly.
• The group left standing will then have to re-negotiate with the US to rebuild what's left of Iraq.

On the subject of Syria:

• Since SoS Condeleeza Rice can't talk Senators like John Kerry (D-Unce) and Arlen Specter (R-INO) from visiting Syria, at least let them pass this note along to President Bashir al-Assad:
  
• The US won't fight a proxy war with you. Quit hiding behind Hamas and Hezbollah. If you want to challenge the United States, grow a set of balls and meet us face-to-face. When we're done wiping your country off the map, we will split the country in two and give Israel and Lebanon an equal share of what's left!

On the subject of Iran:

• It truly burns the TrekMedic's britches that every day, Iranians are able to do the following:

1. Turn on a faucet and have running water.
2. Turn on the TV (presumably to watch CNN Middle East a/k/a Al-Jazeera)
3. Drive along well-paved highways
4. Leave Iran via domestic airlines and commercial airports
5. Import and export commerce via their ports
   

• What the United States needs to do is send the entire Sixth Fleet back into the Straits of Hormuz and bottle-up Iran's harbors.
• After that, the United States needs to systematically bomb EVERY power plant, EVERY rail bridge, EVERY road bridge and EVERY port facility in that country.
• The United States shouldn't be begging the Iranians to come to the bargaining table. Destroy their infrastructure and they'll be begging us to come negotiate with them (See Syria)
