Iraq's election nightmare
http://worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=42919

According to one American diplomat in Baghdad, "The Iraqis are free to choose whatever vision of Iraq they want. That's entirely up to them. It's entirely up to us, the United States, who we choose to support. We can use these funds elsewhere."

2. What will the U.S. do when:
Turkey invades northern Iraq;
Iraq signs alliance with Iran;
