So much for Independence - US STILL influencing Iraq's policy decisions
Edited on Fri Oct-06-06 10:18 AM by ck4829
"Shi'ite politicians, from the majority community oppressed under Saddam Hussein, have complained lately that U.S. pressure to form a power-sharing system among Iraq's three main groups has blocked them from exercising decisive majority rule."

I find that interesting for another reason though, Bush wants the Iraqis to share power, but he seems absolutely terrified of Democrats taking control of the House and/or the Senate, doesn't he?
