Constitutional monarchs from outside work when they are invited in by the residents with general approval.


Of course. We talk about the Monarchy here as idle speculation. It is interesting, and passes the time. The thing we will push is a limited form of representative Government. The Iraqi's are smart enough to know that "one man, one vote" will never work with their ethnic and tribal situation. It has to be what they want, with us providing the protection to keep the radicals from warfare.

A year from now, the posters who are the most anti-war here will be unhappy that Iraq does not run like Peoria. If we don't provide "Instant Utopia" for these Arab countries, we will have failed in the eyes of the left here.
