This is going to result in a dramatic increase in Shiite demands for an immediate election along with the immediate transfer of political control back to Iraqis. I mean, mission accomplished, right? What reason do we now have to still be there?
Saddam on the loose was actually good cover for the insane warlords in the U.S. administration.
I predict massive Shiite demonstrations by the end of January as it becomes clear to them that we are *still* not going to turn their country back over to them. Even after the capture of Saddam.
It's lucky for the U.S. that Sistani is apparently a very peaceful man. But everyone has their limits.
