The Iraqi Army is very afraid of Jaafari and Sadr and the pro-Iranian scum in the UIA. The Army knows that the pro-Iranian Shia want to disband the Army and put in power sectarian militias to control Iraq. The threat of Allawi using the Iraqi Army to kick the religious leaders out of government finally motivated them to act and kick out Jaafari. If they didn't do this the US would have supported Allawi and the Iraqi Army in getting rid of the pro-Iranian scum rather then see Iraq fall apart.

I wonder what the fallout from this will be and if it is our best interests for him to step down. Opinions please.

The Shia, Sunnis and Kurds must learn to get along. I'm glad that finally the log jam is going away.
