The Shiite Shuffle
"Is Iraq still a land of miracles? In the old days, it was the stomping ground of such prophets as Daniel, Jonah, and Ezekiel, all of whom are associated with the miraculous, and all of whom are buried (or are said to be buried) in Iraq. Some Shiites even believe that the virgin birth of Jesus took place in Iraq; they believe that the Baratha mosque, which was bombed in a horrible incident earlier this month, marks the site. And now there are reports of a new miracle in the country: Prime Minister Ibrahim Jaafari has actually stepped aside to allow Iraqis to form a government!"
