TPM Reader JB gets it …
I’m surprised there hasn’t been more commentary in the press and blogosphere regarding the fact that, in simplest terms, whatever “progress” we are making in Iraq is a function of the fact that we have switched sides. I don’t think the U.S. public, or even the media, are really grasping the fact that we are fighting for Saddam’s people now, and the Shia are rapidly becoming the primary target (along with the mystical “Al Queda”). The silence on the topic is a little eerie.
