Had the Shia parties decided to give up their own struggles to resist
the occupation, it would have been over long ago

By year three of Iraq's occupation, for most western citizens the fact
that they live in a world subjugated by lies, half-truths and
suppressed facts has become part of everyday life. In Iraq, a
preoccupation for many of the country's citizens, including some who
initially supported the war, is whether their country will survive or
whether the result of western recolonisation will soon be
disintegration. A Hobbesian landscape today could lead to a tripartite
division tomorrow.
