Report Shows Iraqi Government Is Precarious

There is a story at MSNBC.com concerning the Iraqi government and in a 10 page report it indiates that the government is faltering.

The Iraqi government will become more precarious over the next six to 12 months and its security forces have not improved enough to operate without outside help, intelligence analysts conclude in a new National Intelligence Estimate. The analysts concluded that the level of overall violence is high, Iraq's sectarian groups remain unreconciled, and al-Qaeda in Iraq is still able to conduct its highly visible attacks.

How much did they spend on this report, when it should be obvious to everyone, friend and foe, that this government is a "government" in name only. You have Sunni ministers walking out, the whole government "vacationing" for the month of August, and al-Maliki unable to get anything done. It is a terrible shame that we have given these people a "chance" at a better life, and they are choosing to sqaunder it!
