More on a federalist model for Iraq
Arthur Chrenkoff offers an excellent post on the question of the Shi'a in Iraq and the idea of a federalist approach to Iraq.
As we’ve discussed previously, the federalist model for Iraq may be significant not only in the short term resolution of concerns by religious and ethnic leaders in Iraq, but may also serve to establish for Muslims and Middle Easterners a model for ensuring social, ethnic and religious autonomy while creating a national unity necessary for stability in foreign relations, defense and economic development.
Glad to see the discussion spreading, and from a blog that isn’t rarely read.
