Post subject:  Iraq delays vote on emergency as crisis spreads
So, I wonder how things are going in Iraq since we and the yanks left. It’s all good, right?

Quote:
Parliament in Baghdad has delayed voting on a request to grant the prime minister emergency powers as the north slips out of government control.

Just 128 out of the 325 MPs turned up for the vote on Nouri Maliki's request.

In the north, Kurdish forces claimed control of the oil city of Kirkuk, saying government forces had fled.

Ah.

That seems to be, err, not quite what was intended. Maybe we should ask, I dunno, someone who's a peace envoy to explain a little about how this fits into the plan. :?

Splitters!

And this is exactly why you should leave nutters alone - it seems to take a weapons-grade lunatic to control middle-eastern regions, and it's no secret how they go about it. After all, we tend to set them up years in advance...
