i really don't have a problem with the sunni payoff. fact is, it worked and continues to work as we escalate our withdrawal of troops and continue paying cash. i believe we will prolly end-up paying a shitload of cash for a long time too, that's totally fucked but the alternative is royally fucked.
events such as the carbombings will happen as we transition out and the iraqi army fills those voids.
their army is proving to be competent, maliki is as well.
all from my understanding of the current events, views,, assesments.
