The Sunni part is all you need to know. That's what I figured. Let the purge begin.

Thanks americanophile.
The Interior Ministry, at a news conference, showed what it called confession videos from people identified as security guards for al-Hashimi, the country's Sunni vice president. In the videos, the men described various occasions in which they purportedly carried out attacks under direct orders from al-Hashimi.

Like I said we should have done at the start: Nuke ‘em from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.

And of course, former President George W. Bush will leap to the fore and condemn the Obama administration for the chaos resulting from a premature withdrawal.
After all, he's been so outspoken in defense of his vision to reshape the Middle East as a pluralistic society and warned of what might happen should American troops be withdrawn completely.

This may all go south faster than even predicted. It's either despotism or anarchy with the Arabs, there's no middle ground. All the "if Allah wills it" attitude means that there are few people willing to take initiative to initiate self-government, and the tribal attitude means that few are willing to do anything for the benefit of the nation, rather than the clan.

1400 years of murder, mayhem and mutilation. 100 million butchered for Mohammed. On average, about 70,000 people per year.
It's embarrassing to think we were silly enough to believe a finger dipped in purple ink for a vote could counter a 1400 year blood lust.
But hey, we tried. We even gave the presidency to one of them.

oops, 270 million, about 190,000 per year.
The blood lust is actually more than I thought.

He was a mediocre president. With an extraordinary spending habit. He still is too.
Sorry for the double post, FR was getting unruly with "bad data" pages.

Actually, he was a great President. History will record that he conquered Baghdad. That is an accomplishment about which many have dreamed but very few have accomplished.
The fact he did not accomplish all the goals of a sanctimonious self righteous conservative agenda is actually irrelevant.

That is where your view and mine differ. Merely conquering a foreign capitol is no justification for ‘greatness,’ be it Bagdad or Moscow or any other legendarily resistant place. The “sanctimonous self righteous conservative agenda” is undergirded by our values, and those values are what separate us as a free and good people from simply another of history’s bullies who can conquer at will.
