Cairo Conference: The Divorce of the Fundamentalisms

"The big Iraqi conference in Cairo some weeks ago was totally under-reported in the US media. The conference was an indirect declaration of the end of the US-Iranian temporary marriage in Iraq. The last weeks witnessed, for the first time since the tragic fall of Baghdad, a public war between Iran (the political supporter of the Iraqi government) and the US (the military supporter).

On the west side of this conflict, the bush administration tried its best to smear the Iraqi government by “discovering” some “torture prisons” around the country, where the evil Mullahs are supposed to be torturing Iraqis without the knowledge or permission of the US occupation authorities. On the east side of the conflict, the Iraqi government decided to open fire on the US administration by taking a part in the Conference."
