"Violence down ... ?"

As Gen. Petraeus, Bushie's "surge" planner and designated scapegoat
in
Iraq prepares to take over command of NATO this summer, the very
Islamic factions U.S. forces are paying to fight al-Qaeda in Iraq and
other insurgents are now deserting in large numbers.

Sunni tribal and regional groups, which have helped stem violence in
parts of Iraq, claim both the U.S. and the Iraq Shiite-dominated
"government" are: Failing to consider Sunnis for government police
and other jobs; not giving recognition for the security gains they've
achieved; taking lethal fire from their U.S. comrades in arms!

Thus, it seems, the seeds of the long-predicted Shiite-Sunni civil
war
are being sowed, even as Iraqi legislators this week rejected a law
mandating national elections be held by this fall, and even as the
U.S. prepares for its announced force drawdown.

Will your Nincompoop-In-Chief -- and John McCain -- call for a "re-
surge"?
