Author ought to have dealt with Iraq's crisis in a greater depth,dealing with its woeful historical past,especially about the demonic period relating to Saddam's brutal rule. Iraq was perpetually living in 3-different States e.g portions occupied by Sunnis,Shias and Kurds. Just ask a man in an Iraqi street;if a Kurd,he would vow for Kurdis home,and for Shiites,an area dominated by their community should govern its own ethnic community-ask Sadr-Shiite rebel leader having a large following.Then Sunnies,who form a small group of minority,cannot aspire to rule the entire Iraq,on their own,though Saddam did control the dissenting Kurds and Shiites,with a brutal hand of tyrrny,bloodshed,inflicting various atrocities.Even now,Iraq's dis-unity amongst its Kurds/Shiites/Sunnies,have come up right into the open,after Saddam's removal from power.His execution,was hasty or otherwise,was quite expected,as is widely expected,in case of world's brutal dictators. US/Bush's Iraq policies,were never based on realities.Bush's lack of understanding of Iraq/Arab policies also did culminate in messing up with Iraqi lives where situation is now unfortunately growing towards a civil war.
