Noble cause
Bush's Iraqi "fig leaf" PR constitution-sham headed for civil war*

Shiites and Kurds have halted charter talks, a heavy blow for the Bush misadministration, which had expended enormous energy and political capital to forge a constitution that included the Sunnis.

Under the constitution now completed, Islam will reign as the official state religion and as a main source of Iraqi law. Clerics will in all likelihood have seats on the Supreme Court, where they will be empowered to examine legislation to make sure it does not conflict with Islam. They will be given an opportunity to apply Islamic law in family disputes over matters like divorce and inheritance.

Those provisions have raised concerns here, especially among Iraqi women and secular leaders, who fear that they are laying the groundwork for a full-blown Islamic state.


OK. So they lied about wmd, ties to September 11th, they've killed more people than Saddam did, are responsible for greatly increasing the number of terrorists, and for creating another Islamic fundamentalist state. WTF???
