I'd like to think that Iraq will function as a liberal democracy but then I'm not sure if liberal democracy is compatible with the Arab mindset
At this point in time, most Iraqi Shi'ite clerics seem comparatively moderate compared with their Iranian counterparts - but I wouldn't be surprised in the least if Iraq emerged to be a Shi'ite theocracy within Iran's sphere of influence
