Blow Off
I think this tidbit from Juan Cole pretty much summarizes our future in Iraq. Remember, Sistani is the most popular and most powerful official in Iraq:
Grand Ayatollah Ali Sistani has blown off the president of the United States. Bush sent Sistani a letter asking him to intervene to help end the gridlock in the formation of a new Iraqi government. Asked about his response, an aide said that Sistani had not opened the letter and had put it aside in his office.
