*He did provide evidence that the Iraqi public,
including Shiite, wants the US withdrawal. But I am
not sure that the current Shiite government wants it,
seeing that it is too weak to control Shia and Sunni
militias. See:

So it looks like the US has created a failed state
that it will permanently require US military presence
to keep it from falling apart. Maybe this has been the
goal all along.
O.K.
