Imagine that, Mullah Omar is no longer a terrorist!
Sometimes I think I am living in a bad fiction novel.....
"Since Iraq’s 2010 election, we have witnessed the subordination of the state to Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki’s Dawa party, the erosion of judicial independence, the intimidation of opponents and the dismantling of independent institutions intended to promote clean elections and combat corruption."
Or, in other words, it is becoming like the USA.... minus the "intimidation of opponents". Maliki has to figure out a way to have an opposition party that will have the same agenda as him, and participate in the dog and pony show without a lot of violence.... like the USA.
this is pretty funny, coming from Allawi (former CIA agent - possibly current CIA agent):
"We needed the United States to protect the political process, to prevent violations of the Constitution and to help develop democratic institutions."
I guess he missed that the US Supreme Court picked our President in 2000, and that our US Constitution has been violated so many times it is functionally useless. I guess he missed that our politicians are going on and on about voter fraud, when the real story is voter intimidation and disenfranchisement.
My name is Eric Holder, and I approves these comments.
