Perhaps...Militias are LOCAL AND ORGANIC.
They are not "imposed from above" to wit: from Baghdad.
And is not local control derived from the fabric of society the definition of DEMOCRACY AND LEGITIMATE GOVERNMENT?
But won't the Sunni's attack the Shia and the Kurds attack everyone? Oh Please...Iraq is in Shambles...the Bathhists are bearly able to control their own territory.
THE LOCAL MILITIAS COULD BE DUBYA'S TICKET OUT OF IRAQ..
