Hi guys, I'm back now. I finally finished my paper in the wee hours this morning and handed it in.

Ok, for today's positive development:

Basically, Iraq's president, a Sunni Kurd, has extended political incorporation to Sunni Arabs in drafting a constitution by adding 25 more Sunnis to the constitution committee.

Now, obviously there is still a lot of tensions, infighting (sectarian) and alot of work to be done and the situation is still tenuous, BUT, this is a good first step. It's what some of us have been talking about around these threads.

Interesting note: Sunni Arab inclusion has been heavily pushed for by the US and EU.
