There’s something astonishing about the fact that it’s the Sunnis who are blocking the passage of the Iraqi constitution. Having boycotted the election that was held to create the body charged with writing the constitution — an event that should have marginalized them from the process — they are now attempting to bring it down now that it has been drafted. Sunni concerns keep getting met and addressed in the process in a way that has probably been beneficial to the overall constitutional framework, but still…There’s something horribly wrong about this, that those who chose to scorn democracy are using the inclusionary efforts of the two other groups to make the creation of an Iraqi constitution impossible.
