Al-Allawi has the power - al-Yawer has the title of President.
One is a Sunni - the other is a Shiite. The IGC has now dissolved and headed for safer confines.

Al-Allawi was appointed PM (Prime Minister) on Friday. Yesterday's appointment of al-Yawer was mostly a ceremonial position. Now we wait for the reactions of the radical Shiites. Fallujah will be hesitant to accept any new government that is not Islamic. The process of division begins today. The tribes stake their claims. What will al-Sadr want? May you live in interesting times.
