Are you suggesting our Reps in Iraq don't have to "make concessions" because they have veto power over the Iraqi constitution? You can only lead a horse to water. If the Iraqi's blow this chance we delivered them, I do not blame us. For now, we have to accept that they are not, and were never gonna be, American mini-me's. Our strategic interests are basically sereved if they are NOT a threat to us or our allies....anything else (like turning Iraq into some model of democratic governance for the muslim world)...is gravy....and do-able, even with some role for Islam in the government. Beats having the Shia break off a totally secular federal system.

"we are fighting for the freedom of the Iraqi people"

An islamofascist state is not a "free Iraq."

That is all I am suggesting.
