Good news from Iraq

Quote:

Iraq's new prime minister Iyad Allawi announced an agreement Monday by nine political parties to dissolve their militias, integrating some of the estimated 102,000 fighters into the army and police and pensioning off the rest to firm up government control ahead of the transfer of sovereignty.

This makes the likelihood of a lasting peace in Iraq an order of magnitude higher. I never thought the peshmerga would agree to disband.

Someone is. And for good reasons. Understanding that uncomfortable fact is the first step towards grasping what has been going on in this country’s politics for the last quarter century. Red Family, Blue Family
