It is only the Shiites as the article continues, "But Ahmed al-Masoudi, a spokesman for the Sadr followers in parliament, said the fighters were ready to take up arms if the accord was signed.


"The Sadrists and all the Iraqi political parties tried to end the occupation of Iraq by using political and diplomatic means," Masoudi said. "If the agreement is signed, not only the Sadr movement will use arms but so will all the Iraqi resistance groups, both Shiite and Sunni."

In addition to having the US infidels around longer to kill if they are allowed to stay until the end of 2011, there is another reason why the Sunnis will increase their totals of US casualties. That is simply that a small percentage of the Sunnis are now being paid by the Shiites for roles in the Iraqi security forces. It is now roughly only 20% of the Sunnis who previously worked in military or security forces.

These Sunnis had another role in recent history. They were those labeled "Baathist dead-enders" by Rumsfeld. They joined al-queda in Iraq to attack the US military. The Shiites don't want to pay and arm them because they are entirely unreliable because of their history. When they had free time on their hands from killing the US military -- they killed Shiites.


When the US goes, this 20% of Sunnis receiving pay checks from the Shiite will rapidly drop to 0%. What do you think they will do? They will be unemployed and armed and will go back to al-queda in Iraq -- as they did during the initial part of "Operation Iraqi Freedom" and they will return to killing Shiites as they have been doing for ages.

Today al-Sadr and al-Maliki allegedly support the draft security agreement. It reminds us of how these dupes of the US occupiers adhere to Herr Karl's "Ministry of Truth" dictates. Remember how surveys showed that the vast majority of red staters believed that Saddam Hussein had a part in 9/11 because Herr Karl's FOX News and Clear Channel radio stations pounded the lie in into the common man's brain incessantly?

Sometimes the hypocrisy gets so intense you just want to admit any crime just for that Ministry of Love "Room 101" torture to end.

McCain had no problems lying about "the surge" for political gain and the article concludes the Iraqi politicians are weighing how remaining linked to the US infidels will affect their chances as "Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, a Shiite, has been noticeably silent about whether he supports the agreement, and furious lobbying has been going on ahead of the cabinet meeting, politicians say.

The Iraqi defense, interior and finance ministers have argued in favor of the accord, while some of Maliki's Shiite rivals have raised objections in recent weeks.  Political parties are carefully gauging how their vote on the accord could affect them in provincial elections scheduled for January.

It certainly took our US mass media away from dealing with Iraq. The volume of attacks have gone from 24 to 4 daily -- but that total is still abysmally high and was never approached during Hussein's term.

Yeah, Hussein was a thug, but if al-Maliki has his way he'll promote the Shiites at the expense of the Sunnis and Kurds, and he'll have no qualms committing atrocious acts of ethnic cleansing. The fact that there are still 4 attacks daily is astonishing when you consider how many Iraqis have been already killed and when you realize just how many concrete barricades the US has erected in Baghdad to separate the perpetrators of sectarian violence. In Iraq now there are swaths of completely Shiites or Sunni or Kurdish populations divided by geographical or man-made barriers.

Yes, the bailout has too many shared characteristics with the Iraq war. Another item is that in the Middle East there are small oligarchies whose members possess all of the riches -- similar to our top 1%. 

Big bro 43 wants to impoverish our middle and lower classes so severely that we'll match Middle Eastern countries. Then the bottom 99% will be grateful for anything that W's blue-blood chums let trickle down rather than fighting for more advantages as we had prior to big bro 43's administration. He's made us fear that Social Security and health care aren't within our reach anymore. The subprime crisis made us fear that we couldn't afford housing. What's left?

Winston is an ex-Social Worker, burnt out by too much indifference regarding our weak and weary. I had little interest in politics until the illegal Iraq War started.
