By Reuel Marc Gerecht

Well worth the read (especially for the cultural aspects)

Sorry to hit ‘n’ run , Gilliam, but I didn’t read it, but have heard the same: The Shiites in Iraq are not interested in having an Islamic governement, but a secular one, and would disappoint the Iranians who would want influence on the new Iraqi government. Correct??
