Re: ISIS militants press forward, threaten to seize more Iraqi cities as soldiers bol
Noori Al-Maliki has now refused to form a unity government with greater, more powerful Sunni representation in order to counter Sunni disaffection, and has denounced foreign pressure to do so as a coup attempt.
Given, that this was a prerequisite from the US in order to get air strike support, it look like Noori's on his own with just Syria and Iran covering his back.
The rise of ISIS seems to be mainly due to this very reason in any case.

Militias, shiite or al-qaeda, are bad for business anywhere especially in iraq here.
I thought that you would know that very well being a pakistani.
How can you include WHOLE population of Shias along with small groups like militias and al-Qaeda?! And why does this list not include Baathists?
One can condemn politicians like Maliki all they want. But no sane person would make abuse Shias in general for what Maliki does. And for that matter, no sane person would abuse all Sunnis for what ISIS or Qaeda.
Being a Pakistani I know very well those people who are outwardly secular but have myopic, intolerant mindset towards others.
