Rifts emerge in Iraq government (claims of fabricated evidence)

<<SUNNI and Shiite leaders in Iraq clashed publicly overnight over a US allegation that a bodyguard for a top Sunni politician may have plotted an al-Qaeda suicide attack on the vast Green Zone government compound.

.........................

<Bahaa al-Araji, prominent in the Shiite Alliance bloc of which Sadr is part, demanded that Alliance Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki reshuffle his cabinet to improve security. He hinted that Shiite leaders no longer trusted Sunni Deputy Prime Minister Salam al-Zobaie, who is in charge of security issues.

<That drew a sharp response from allies of Mr Dulaimi.

<"All this talk about car bombs and so on in Adnan Dulaimi's house is fabricated," the Accordance Front's Hussein al-Falluji said.

<"It seems there's some kind of political pressure from some people in the Alliance and the timing of this issue was calculated in advance to affect his standing," he said.>>

So, when does the U.S. take sides in this lil' tift? Hmmm, and when will the U.S. Corp. media start reporting (really reporting) about the Iraqi government?

1. What else would you expect from the Iraqi political process?
After all, this entire system was designed and installed by the GOP. Why shouldn't it revolve around back-biting allegations, planted and fabricated evidence, deceit, distrust and dishonesty as tools for advancement, and incendiary charges (both figurative and literal)? Karl Rove's going to have to flee somewhere when his current house of cards collapses.
