Dexter, I guess you should read the article.

How about the close -
"If the Shia bloc can come up with a unified candidate, I expect that the Kurds would support him," Osman said. "If they cannot, then Allawi will keep his job."

Besides, the votes aren't in yet.  This is first of 3 elections.

Eh no, nobodys right all of the time. If any of us is right most of the time, we're doing well.

So about those links so I can have a quick read please?

p.s. life IS good at the moment, thanks for reminding me to take a quick step back and appreciate how things are, I must do it more often.

No links.  Just shut that computer down.

Open up your door and go to a resturant.  Enjoy a night out bowling, playing video games and drinking.

Don't talk about religion or politics.  Talk about things that make you happy like MAME.

No links.

There are no links dexter. The results aren't in.
Here's one that says THE RESULTS AREN'T IN YET.

http://www.news.com.au/story/0,10117,12234511-23109,00.html

Here's another one that says the results aren't in yet.
http://www.usatoday.com/news/world/iraq/2005-02-12-iraq-elections_x.htm?POE=NEWISVA

When they are, we'll see. But it doesn't look good for Allawi, or as you so humbly call him "the puppet".
