The True Winner in Iraq: Iran

I noted previously that it was the commander of the Iranian Quds Force that brokered the cease-fire between the Mahdi Army and the Iranian Army.

Admittedly, I haven't been paying much attention to the Chimperor's Clusterfuck War the last few days. (After all, I'm not getting paid for this shit.) If I had, I would have mentioned that the Iraqi Army is inducting members of the Badr Corps, another militia, by the thousands.

So what we have now in Iraq is a growing conflict between sectarian militias. We, the American taxpayers, are funding one of the militias, the Badr Corps, against another militia. (We are also funding the Kurdish militia, the Peshmerga, but they have been disinclined to go to Basra to fight there.) The Badr Corps was nurtured and trained by Iran. Is there anyone who can say that the fact that the Iraqi Army is transforming itself into a wing of the Badr Corps is good new, anyone, that is, other than Chimpy, Vice President Voldemort and their cadre of hand-picked toadies at Ft. Fumble?
