6. Yours and this analysis are spot on

Sistani is the only thing that has given the fake US government in Baghdad room to succeed.

The story of the "purple fingers" of Iraqi voting goes like this

Bush says that the US military will appoint governors-Sistani politely says no
Bush makes another announcement that the US military will hold elections and elect local governors-Sistani is understandably PO'ed and calls for one man one vote and organized 500,000 people in the streets of Baghdad (peacefully) within 2 days
Bush announces one man one vote like it was his idea the whole time. We then see the morons in Congress trumpet the "purple fingers" as a great victory of liberty and freedom and democracy and did we mention FREEDOM?

none of which is covered by our media
