Picking up the marbles and staying home for the election didn't do the Sunnis much good. Now they want to start all over again, so THEY have more say over the ground rules of the game.

“There are objections from our Sunni Arab brothers ... but nobody can claim that they represent the whole spectrum of Sunni Arabs,”

Just maybe they are getting the idea that the majority rules in a democracy, not a minority bunch of trouble-making thugs...very good !!!

IF ALL THE PEOPLE don't like the constitution, they can rework it...as it should be.

The media is just annoying in their coverage.

I'm betting the referendum sees the constitution pass. I think the Sunnis in the National Assembly don't represent the majority of the Sunnis, and that by the time the vote rolls around most Sunnis will be sick and tired of their leaders telling them they're too stupid to know how to vote on this.

I'd like to see the final version, but I'm betting it will pass. The average Sunni doesn't care if the constitution says they are part of the Arab world or not. Many of them even favor federalism because they want it for their own proviences. It's going to be interesting. If the violence flairs up, then fewer Sunni will be able to vote.
