I heard on NPR today that Talabani, the Iraqi President, said their is one man holding back the Shia fury: Sistani. He said Sistani would rather see half of the Shias killed than for a civil war to take place. So the Shias are obeying Sistani. If the Sunnis kill Sistani, then watch all hell break loose. I hope our troops are out by then.
