13. Ours = everyones
This is the government the Iraqis picked themselves and we might be "propping up" some other democratically elected leader in the fall after the Iraqis vote.

If you don't think Iran won't have the Badr Corps crawling all over Iraq helping the JAM go after the Sunnis as soon as we pull out, you haven't been paying attention. If you don't think the Saudis are freaked out about the idea of the Badr Corps controlling Basra and being that close to the Saudi oil fields that sit on lands with a Shia majority, you need to do some more research.

Oh and where is Sadr right now? Oh that's right, Iran.

I want to be clear here: I am NOT for going into or striking Iran.

However to say that Iran isn't trying to use Sadr and the JAM to control Iraq is ignorant.
