Winning the peace

"This is a crucial moment for the new Iraqi government; its leaders understand the challenge. They believe that now is the time to hammer out compromises on Iraq's most contentious issues.
I've been clear with each Iraqi leader I meet: America is a patient nation, and Iraq can count on our partnership, as long as the new government continues to make the hard decisions necessary to advance a unified, democratic and peaceful Iraq." [1]

It would be interesting to know what these issues are. Why are they contentious? Who are the key players? What would happen if compromises can or cannot be achieved?
