How does BushCo plan on securing oil interests with a popular Shiite gov.? |

I am curious about this... does anybody have any links or insight into this question? I mean a Shia coalition government with its own set of nads won't be able to be boughten off, will they? I mean with Iran right there.

3. Allawi is Shia, correct? |

He has no nads that he's revealed yet.
I don't think they plan on allowing any non-handpicked government to take power, call me cynical.
But I don't know how they would answer the question.
