No doubt things are mostly secure in kurd and shiaa area. I am talking strictly about the 4 sunni provinces and the chances for federal democracy in iraq. We cannot force feed them democracy. The Kurds can take care of themeselves and the shiaa want us to stay longer for tactical reasons but their iranian backers finance a good deal of the terror against our interests for what they think are strategic reasons. Whatever the best outcome is, is what i want for iraq. I dont think this administation is doing a good job. After listening to biden over the weekend, perhaps the timetable i talk about should be 2 years out as the iraqis seem nowhere ready to pick up their share militarily. And if you read the papers today, you will see the shiaa and sunni are still deadlocked in a food fight over numbers of representatives for writing the constitutional. For sunnis to play they will have to be proportionally overrepresented in a federal type system akin to the US House/Senate. Mike
