#2 This will do nothing about the insurgents. They ain’t exactly the religious type. Plus it's the Sunni that are causing the trouble.

#3 From what I can tell there is only one Shia Iraqi leader who is against the US involvement in Iraq. Some bloke in the Baghdad area. Is this him?

#5 That heart-to-heart probably came from the mature Shia leaders. They realize we're their best hope for achieving political power in Iraq and don't want him to blow it.

#6 As long as he's not talking peace while sending the snipers out the back door. That's been done before.

#9 that came from Little Green Footballs which has had a delightful obsession with the miscellaneous articles on Arafish's desk (from news photos). The gist is he has all these documents/dreaded red binder on his desk - but WTF does he do???
