Bush must think that he has the Sunni's between a rock and a hard place.
If they vote it won't help them because the Shia out number them and Sistani says to the Shia, "vote". If the Sunni try to counter by voting they lose and likewise if they don't vote they also lose. They therefore have every reason to fight and sure enough thats what they are doing. If the US actually wants the violence to stop or even slow down someone better figure out a way so that the Sunni see a light at the end of the tunnel. Or are we into ethnic cleansing?

2. Three words: "Gott mit uns".
This was a favorite motto of the Nazi Party in Germany during the Third Reich. God was with them to the exclusion of the rest of the world. I'm sure our American Anti-Christ has similar sentiments.
