No political reconciliation could take place when factions were fighting mob-style for control of the country. Now that this aspect is over - Iraq took control of Basra the other day, in the midst of more important news about teen pregnancies - they have to remain united in the face of the threat of Iran, and the majority wants to stay united. The ending of violence allows reconciliation to go ahead - and it is.
