Swopa, who has a knack for prescient Iraq analysis, adds some context to today's big event. (Frankly, I think he should at least acknowledge among other things that Bush might just have been right to stick to his guns and not delay the elections. Still, the post is valuable.)
UPDATE: Swopa probably rightly points out that the administration really didn't have "any choice on the date, because
Sistani et al. wouldn't have tolerated a postponement."
