"Thats not the problem. Al Qai'da & Sunnis can be handled by the democratic majority (Shia) if we assist in arming them suitably. The problem is that it is not in our interest to assist the democratic majority in that manner." Why? "Do you think that even in the USA we could get 50+% of Reps and 50+% of Dems to vote for a centrist candidate for Pres? Look at the political threads on SI! No way." We most certainly can if we could get them nominated. The wing nuts in general and SI wingnuts in particular control the primary process. Think McCain vs Warner for two mods. Or if one party did the right thing Think McCain vs Dean or Warner vs Delay. Moderates win in all three scenarios.
