ARTICLE: "Obama Victory Alters the Tenor Of Iraqi Politics," by Alissa J. Rubin, New York Times, 7 November 2008.
Iraqi Shiite politicians indicate they are willing to move much faster on on security agreement, now that Obama elected.
Why?
Hadi al-Ameri, a powerful member of the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq, a major Shiite party[, said] “If Republicans were still there, there would be no respect for this timetable. This is a positive step to have the same theory about the timetable as Mr. Obama.”
