#2 Tough titty siad the kitty but the milks all gone.

What they are saying is that if they can't cheat and start with a 10 run lead they are going to take their ball and go home. Only now they realized that 1) they did not bring a ball to the game and the other players wont 'give' it to them and 2) the game will go on without them.

#3 Why, other than humor value, would anyone pay any attention to what this group says? It is roughly equivalent to listening to any number of US academic organizations whose views are colored by craniorectal inversion.

#4 The Sunnis are having a little two-year-old's temper tantrum for almost two years now. It's counterproductive to their own interests. At this point I don't much care if the Shiites and Kurds beat the hell out of the Sunnis -- electorally, governmentally, or literally. A public hanging for Saddam might help too. The Sunnis need to be shoved over a tipping point into the new reality.

#5 Is this "Association of Muslim Scholars" different from the one they constantly referred to a while back, the "influential Association of Muslim Scholars"? Maybe is AoMS is a splinter of the iAoMS, that is so obviously not influential, that they didn't think it was right that they keep the name. In the future, we can hope that they settle on the name "inconsequential Association of Muslim Scholars."

#8 A bunch of moral accomplices to murder in Iraq

That's not murder, Veraline; that's....um, something else.

#10 I believe Mr. al-Jubouri is a Kurd. The Turks are really going to get their knickers in a twist when Mosul becomes Kurd majority again.
