Disgruntlement over the increasingly authoritarian governance may be common among business circles, elements of the neutered political opposition, liberal intellectuals, and even part of the bureaucracy. But these forces are too timid and fragmented, with no drive for political action.

The Independent Electoral Commission, which was to have commenced its activities on 30 July, has not begun its operations owing to the stance of the opposition parties and the Forces Nouvelles in the controversy surrounding the laws promulgated by President Gbagbo.

The decision by Mr. Jumblatt's bloc to join forces with them was a major development insofar as it expanded the opposition coalition beyond the sectarian dividing lines, especially in light of Mr. Jumblatt's traditional alliance with the Syrian Arab Republic.

There are simply too many real political forces on the ground in Iraq for America to manage, and these forces are increasingly demanding a timetable for US withdrawal, as are legions of Iraqis in the course of public protests and mosque worships. Every time the US reiterates its refusal to set a deadline for withdrawal, it simply stokes political opposition, not to mention the insurgency.
