		Allawi insisted that the election would go ahead — although, he warned, it would be imperfect — despite the suggestion by "some" that security conditions for holding a credible election simply don't exist right now.
		The insurgency, Allawi said, is overblown by Western media coverage — in fact, he claimed, it is confined to three out of Iraq's 18 provinces, and most of southern and northern Iraq is tranquil enough to hold elections tomorrow.
