You lose all credibility because of the name calling of the president. If this is to be a serious thread attack the president all you want but you show some restraint and respect for the office. As to your point about the shiaa theocracy subjugating sunnis i see only little evidence of this. I think a good deal of the violence against the sunnis has to do with retribution not for saddam period but for the wave of terror zarquawi launched against them. If so and if the coming new govt can make deals among kurds, shiaa and sunnis, i think that there is still some hope for a good outcome IF the US gives a timetable for departure that is believable. All groups in iraq say they want this. If they get it, zarquawi becomes the odd man out and i suspect religious shiaa, secular shiaa, progressive sunnis, baathists and kurds all want them gone once the occupation ends or appears to be ending. Zarquawi is being used by sunnis and iran for their own goals of getting the US out. Once out its lets make a deal or civil war leading to three states. Mike
