Besides the role of Islam, control of oil production will determine the character and viability of Iraq’s governing authority… This evening at midnight, in Baghdad, the arbitrary 7-day extension the National Assembly granted itself to complete Iraq’s contentious draft constitution expires. And, in order to form a more perfect union, Iraqi Shias and Kurds (who… Read more.
Last week, New Yorkers were treated to sensational details about a contentious love triangle that make the titillation manufactured by TV soap operas seem relatively tame.
