Hand-wringing on Iraq
Iraq 's interim leader called on his countrymen to set aside their differences Monday while jubilant Iraqis sifted through millions of ballots, tallying the results of a vote they hoped would usher in democracy and lead to the departure of 150,000 American troops.
| Yeah. Ain'tcha happy for them? |
But there were fears that not everyone would accept Sunday's results.
But who expressed those fears - the MSM?
Sunni participation was considerably lower than other groups, a U.S. official said on condition of anonymity.
| Sunnis, is it? Oh, y'mean the people the people the terrs live with? Y'think that might have something to do with it? |
That raised fears
Again with the fears?
| Oh, yasss. I'm so very frightened! |
that Sunni radicals who drive Iraq's insurgency could grow ever more alienated.
MORE alienated? WTF - could they BE more alienated? BTW, what do you mean "alienated"? A kid who doesn't call home, that's alienated. People who blow up other people are called TERRORISTS.| I think they're referring to true alienation, not a child sticking his lower lip out. True alienation leads to violence. When that doesn't work it leads to ennui, then to cafard, and finally to slitting of the wrists, which prob'ly also deserves an expensive French name. |
