A little more on the Iraqi elections

Just two quick stories about the Iraqi election:

1. "Dozens of Sunni Arab and secular Shiite groups threatened to boycott Iraq's new legislature Thursday if complaints about tainted voting are not reviewed by an international body."

2. "American diplomats called it "mission impossible" -- to bend the rules on contact with powerful anti-American Sunni forces in Iraq and negotiate a cease-fire -- all before last week's elections." (source: Moonie Times, so be aware.)
