Old Jan 4th, 2005, 01:12 PM        Will W 'Flip-Flop' on Iraqi Elections
Calls are growing to postpone the Iraq election, on account of things being so out of control that voting is a really good way to get dead being a real factor in keeping people from voting.

Suppose we get to the point where the entire Iraqi interim government is looking for a postponement. Will we let them ? Not letting them would kind of blow the whole idea of them having that whaddayacallit, sovereighnity.

But since an election now could hardly be seen as valid by any party not getting what they want (Say, like the sunnis, since voting in their parts of the country is FAR more hazardous than anywhere else) and an election is pretty likely to lead to outright civil war as opposed to 'insurgency'...

Well, make your guess here. Will our deadline go the way of opposition to establishing a 9/11 panel and Condi refusing to testify? Or will W simply insist that a sovereign country do as he says. he could always threaten to liberate them again.
