"Well, I couldn't have said it better, though I could have said it with a bit less cant. But the main point bears repeating: Nothing not even the U.S. Army more threatens the future of a democratic, pluralistic and (dare we wish, secular) Iraq than the political ascendancy of Islamic fascists like Al Sadr."
