A Uniter, Not A Divider
Isn't that what Bush called himself? Well, in a really, really perverse way, it turns out he was right.
Sunni and Shiite Muslims have found a common enemy in the US-led coalition occupying Iraq, while the violence raging across the country is partly linked to the approaching return of Iraqi sovereignty, experts said Thursday.Any power occupying a foreign country has two options, said Nadim Shehadi, an expert from the Royal Institute of International Affairs in London.
"You can divide and rule, or you can attack everybody and the effect is that you unite them against you," Shehadi told AFP.
The latter was the situation now faced by the United States and its allies in Iraq, he said.

well, he sure is a unificator, not a dividenator, but only in a very subliminable way.

Damn! Now I have to take "I'm a unificator, not a dividenator" off of my list of Bush lies. That brings the number down to.... hmmm.... (But it's what I started saying about a week ago, when we first saw inklings of this.)
