That's why they were to cute by half in leaking that memo. Who says al sadr doesn't have the strength to mount a coup since Maliki is only in office due to al sadr forming a coalition with him. The Bushies are up the creek with out a show pony if Maliki resiigns under duress or a terrorist faction takes him out. Though if you really want to go :tinfoilhat: - a black op by pick your state actor who takes him out and blames it on al Sadr thereby giving the US permission to seek redress under terms Americans may be ok with, yikes. Just sayin'...

The House of Saud pobably set that up through Prince Bandar who has his fingers in many pies. Next Cheney is all about the oil and needing to find a replacement source should Iraqi oil be denied to the US. And what did the House of Saud ask for in exchange - that is the very scary part. Plus a certain high profile trial is starting during the first of the year... Just so much and from the Plame threads you are right - we probably are all aghast that it is now even more complex which means the average joe has no clue.

You should do a recap, hint, hint, super hint!;)
