Grand Ayatollah Ali al Sistani, Most Powerful Man In Iraq...Is Iranian?
Not only has Bush's blunder caused Iraq to elect a govt deeply sympathetic to Iran, it has also turned power in that country over to an Iranian Grand Ayatollah. Ronald Reagan must be rolling in his grave.

(Newsweek)

"He refuses a new air conditioner, yet his office is internet wired. He wants women to take political office, but not to shake the hands of men outside their families. He is easily the most powerful man in Iraq. Yet he's an Iranian."
