Excellent. The corruption among the Shiites is being adressed. Next: arrest or kill Moqtada al-Sadr and his top 1,000 goons.

The Interior Ministry is a rat's nest. The government is top-heavy with Shi'tes (logical with 60% of the population) and in a Parliamentary system, foot-dragging is rewarded.

Sometimes I wish we'd have written the constitution ourselves a la MacArthur, and provided for a very strong executive (with some serious checks and balances).
