You and the media want it to be bad. But fortunately, it isn't. The main threat at this point is the precipitous withdrawal of forces that Obama is undertaking. The time is not yet right. I'm glad to have my son home. But Obama is moving too fast with this withdrawal of forces.

In a hopeful sign, some of the returning Sunnis in Hurriyah and elsewhere in Baghdad say longtime Shiite neighbors extended a warm welcome. "They said they could not do anything to help us when the Mahdi Army came to force us out," said Bassem Mahmoud, a 35-year-old father of two, speaking outside his Hurriyah home with his mother next to him. "They said they feared for their lives if they tried to help us." This is a hopeful sign. The danger in this situation is that after the US leaves, the Iraqi Sunnis can tap into the greater Sunni power base in the ME and cause all kinds of problems for the Iraqi Shia.
