Too Early to Tell

It will be interesting to see how much of the WH hype and media bias on the “success” of the Iraqi elections turns out to be true. Even here in the UK there are pictures on the tube of smiling Iraqis voting here and much hype around the millions that have voted. I am very suspicious of the whole thing considering the voting environment and the amount of input the US has had. We’ll reserve judgment for the time being especially with respect to ending violence and how this was a victory over the terrorists.
