Iraqi Government: Looking at security breaches

Primarily, this blog is for Whig activities in Northern Virginia and broader Whig discussions.  However, I personally remain very interested in the news from Iraq and so I will occasionally post something interesting.

The Iraqis recently passed an election law that will allow elections to continue in January, 2010.  The biggest items in the election law was the disposition of Kirkuk and the 'Open list' decision.  The 'Open list' decision allows Iraqis to vote for indivuals instead of parties and is not what the Iranians wanted to see.  Yay!  :)

This article is not good news.  It talks about the devastating car bombings at the justice ministry.  It comes from the always excellent Jane Arraf in the always balanced Christian Science Monitor.
