1. He is the first I think
I haven't seen any others yet, but I expect Sadr or Sistani also.
What happens if Sistani or one of his guys runs and wins?

3. i've asserted that myself
the vast number of iraqis see his era as stable & orderly. much like amurkins, they just want to be safe.

unlike amurkins, they really have reasons to be afraid: kidnappings for ransom are happening constantly now.

6. I can certainly see why!!
How do you ask 1000+ people to die for a lie & then reinstate that lie?

This makes me sick.
