Soccer stars send a message

There is a lesson to be learnt in Iraq's 1 - 0 win over Saudi Arabia in the Asian Cup semi-final.
The team was made up of Sunni, Shiite and Kurdish players who came together (queue mournful opera music) at a time when their country was in turmoil, put aside their differences and conquered Asian soccer.
Good on them, I say.
But for those left fighting back in Iraq, take a long hard look at yourselves.
If these guys can work together WHY CAN'T YOU??
Sorry to be blunt but it had to be said.
