American plans for Iraq: the Israel factor

I mean, one of the neo-conservative plans for Iraq was to guarantee the normalization of relations between Israel and the post-Saddam Iraq. That was a joke. I mean, aside from the joke by the name of Mithal Allusi, only the Kurdish tribal confederate parties has established relations with Israel, while the rest of the country remained opposed. To speak in the sectarian terms that the US war imposed on Iraq, the Shi`ite are largely supportive of Hizbullah, while the Sunnis are largely either Arab nationalists or Islamist-oriented. Leftists are also opposed to Israel. Basically, the neo-conservatives can celebrate the fact that the unknown, Mithal Allusi (who survives two assassination plots on his life per day), has visited Israel. And comrade Amer tells me that Allusi's showing in the election was abysmal (between 500 and 2000 votes in most provinces, not a 10th of a deputy, in Baghdad, his list got 16242 votes so far out of millions of votes, he will not get a single seat. If you wanna gloat some more, Mouaffaq al-Rubai`i got 1557 votes.")
