Political blogger Atrios -- a Generation Xer -- has the solution for Iraq at his blog Eschaton:

I'm probably not the only person who has played a game of Risk with someone who, when losing, decided the best course of action was to just give the board a good whack and scatter the pieces.

He’s got a point.

Well, the obvious problem is that we are not stacking up tons of troops in Papua New Guinea and taking advantage of the bonus every turn for occupying all of the Australian territories. Once we've got a huge number of armies there, we can then flood through Southeast Asia and take over Asia and Africa within a matter of a few turns.
