Chris Cantell Discusses World News: Iraq's Prime Minister has results whether we see them or not by Corina Ciubotaru

The war in Iraq has been hard on everybody. On the troops stationed there, on their commanders, on their families back home; on the Iraqis themselves and on their newly designated leaders. The democracy that was intended there was achieved only in part, as the Sunni and Shiite ministers fight each other constantly and claim the country's people are not united, while the President and Prime Minister seem powerless in the fight against Talibans' reign in the south of Iraq. Most people thought this war would be an easy one. That the dictatorship would be abolished quickly, that the hidden weapons would be exposed easily and that the people there would embrace change in no time. But this ideal picture was wrong; Iraqis wanted change, but they can't be expected to give up their years of history and all of their beliefs which separate them in two rival factions who also fight each other. Some said the Prime Minister should be replaced, but his situation isn't easy over there. He has done his share of good things, like clearing the north of drugs, and he can't be expected to change a country devastated by war in such a short time. In Karbala and Baghdad alone 60 people were killed since last week. The recent deaths are a painful reminder that there is much left to be done there, and only time will tell if Iraq will become the successful capitalist country that its current leaders are trying to make it.
