BBC NEWS | World | Middle East | Sunni share of power is critical:

"But unless the Sunnis are brought into the political process, the task of democratisation will be jeopardised and the effort to suppress the insurgency threatened."

So it all boils down to religious differences again, and here in the cradle of civilisation we humans are tyring to see jus thow uncivilised we can be.

Good job, people. Hey, maybe you two people can compare just what flavour of fascism you want your government to be, and design some subset of mind-numbingly-stupid protocols that somehow fit your identically-pointless-but-still-incompatible belief structures so that you can at least oppress your willing subjects in new and exciting ways.

The sad part is that they fight for the ability to be oppressed by one priest-king, rather than another. I'll never, in a million years, see the logic behind such mass masochism, nor understand why so many people need to imagine overseers to force themselves to be charitable and nice.
