>>By the way, don't you think it's time to commend the US for getting rid of Quesay and Uday, who were murderous thugs?<<

Sure, but as always, balanced and objective commends are needed.

A Shiite cleric to his followers:

O the faithful, thou shall rejoice for getting one of the two evils. After the celebrations we have one more enemy to take on and that is the real Satan, the non-believer US.

Rrufff, this is what I can hear resonating in the streets of Iraq while we sit behind our keyboards and pass armchair kudos and count our successes.

Thus far the Sunnis and Shias were preoccupied fighting amongst themselves and thereby diluting their attention towards the West. Now with the US helping to nullify the Sunni factor, the Shia hand has been strengthened. And where do you think that hand is going to go. It is going to grab a dagger and try to drive it right into US' heart with some help from Shiite Iran. Time alone will tell.

IMHO

I hope I am wrong but I fear I may be right
