March 18 - It's always dangerous making predictions, and nowhere more
so than in Iraq. When voters defied terrorist attacks to cast their
ballots in the Jan. 30 election, some officials forecast that as soon
as the votes were counted the newly elected National Assembly would
agree on a new government, which would immediately take over from Prime
Minister Iyad Allawi's interim administration. That was the "big bang"
theory, and it was almost instantly proved wrong.
