“Color be stupid, I thought the Mesopotamians and the Persians were enemys”

The Sunni ruling majority in Iraq were enemies with the Persians. Not the majority Shiites who now control. Democracy installs the majority.

Maybe Maliki’s entourage will meet with an “unfortunate” accident on his way back into Iraq...The US has put up with this fool and his treason backstabbing with Al Sadr AND Iran...

They are enemies because they don’t share their religious beliefs. But that ignores that 2/3 of the Iraqis are Shiites, like Iran. As we’ve seen with al Sadr, a lot of the Iraqi Shiites have ancestry in Iran.

What did we expect?
