Progress, cont'd. cont'd.

A second provincial governor in Iraq has been assasinated, the second in 10 days. This signals an intensification of Shiite - Shiite internal struggles in southern Iraq, as Shiite factions vie for control of that region as the British continue their pullout.

Meanwhile, Iraqi Sunnis continue to resist the feelers of Prime Minister Maliki to rejoin the Iraqi government, which has invited President Ahmadinejad of Iran to Baghdad. You mean that Iran? Axis of Evil Iran? The Decider won't be happy.

Oh, and Bushies? Please don't read the latest issue of Foreign Policy. You'll get a tummy ache.
