Doc: Articles indicate Sadar pushed it until mid-Oct for Framework to do its thing. Sadar has been delaying 30 days, 15 more days, etc for months. So, is Sadar the holdup? or id Maliki really controlling Sadar ? Do we see anything that will get this off the dime?

Annie68:  Maliki is and always has been Iraq's problems!

CharlieOK:  Nope. Don't agree. Iran pulls Maliki's strings. He is merely a puppet. When they are through with him, he is toast.

CharlieOK:  Just listened to a news source saying that Iran has attacked Kurds in NW Iraq. This happened at the same time all the unrest is going on in Iran. Again we see that it is not Maliki that is the main culprit or problems in Iraq - it is IRAN. Iraq is going to have to decide to be a sovereign country.

RVAlready: It seems that the problem in Iraq has too many variables, hence, no solution in a year. I’m pretty sure the UN has a pretty good idea on an reasonable. Thus, I think we are just waiting on the UN to come in next week an impose the solution. We are just wasting time between now and then. … on a reasonable solution …
