Meanwhile in Iraq...Chalabi to be arrested

The political season in Iraq is turning extremely nasty. Not only were over 20 persons killed and dozens injured in bombings of a Shiite mosque and a Shiite wedding by guerrillas, but charges and counter-charges among politicians have now resulted in the prospective arrest of long-time Iraqi expatriate politican Ahmad Chalabi.
Read more at Juan Cole. I wonder what effect this will have on his chances in the "election".

And...15 more Iraqi soldiers have been killed.
