danielle pletka, let's start with secretary of state john kerry's visit to iraq.you think it is possible to form a new government? guest: i think it is possible. they have a little less than a week ago before the deadline. the real question is whether the prime minister is going to be able to create a broad enough coalition or whether somebody else is going to end up creating the coalition. guest: i think that is exactly right. i think this is a very short amount of time in which to form a government, something that iraq has taken months and months to do in the past. i do think the crisis gives this a new urgency. the u.s. has basically come right up to the edge of saying to go.liki has some neighbors in the region have said it out right. he is going to have a difficult uphill battle to be able to convince other groups to join him in a national unity government. host: surprised at how unstable the iraqi political system has been in this crisis that has sprung up in just the past couple of weeks and months? guest: it has always been unstable in terms of government

we've got daniel pletka. you said you wanted to start talking about solutions. let's start with this. you're a sunni leader, a moderate sunni leader. you've got butchers from isis to your left, you've got malik y bullying you. isn't there a danger that we start bombing these isis folks who blended into the population, start killing kids over there and push the sunnis away from us? >> i understand why you're asking the question and i think there's real merit in asking these sorts of questions before we make any decisions. we need to understand how to bring the sunnis back into the iraqi government. the problem is we have very little leverage in iraq because we left everybody out to dry. we don't have to ie agree about that. i can tell you that that's the perception in iraq. so the sunnis feel that we left them, maliki feels we left them. there's not a lot of trust. one of the ways we're going to rebuild the trust is doing something about isis. sunnis are going to be the victims of isis as shiite. >> we've got isis in iraq promising to deliver the next 9/11 in new
