Day 63: Still No Government Formed In Iraq
The election was on January 30th. Over 2 months have gone by without the Iraqis forming a government. The longer this goes on, the more difficult a resolution will be. The US is increasingly meddling in the politics of choosing a PM. That does nothing but piss off Iraqis. How much longer can this go on unresolved without things falling into even greater chaos. Yeah, those elections really meant a lot.

1. I don't think we've seen anything yet. Between the Shi-ites
demanding that Jafaari (or whatever the hell his name is)stays, and bush** & Co. squealing that they want him to go, and the Sunnis not having a say in anything, it's going to get a whole lot worse. The only thing that hasn't happened yet is the Kurds secede and take the Kirkuk oil fields with them. That will just be the icing on the cake.

4. I'm afraid you're right.
It's just a matter of time.

2. Yeah, but which Condi has spoken.
I am sure they all woke up this morning and made amends to appease the wicked which from the west.

3. The U.S. wants a government formed in Iraq, they just need to do it
the way Bush tells them to do it. And the people Bush wants need to be in charge. That's the way it's done in a free country. :eyes:

Democracy at its finest, being shoved down the throat of every Iraqi citizen, whether they want it or not. Ain't it grand? :eyes:
