dianavan BS: Reviewing the Road to Iraq (131* d) RE: BS: Reviewing the Road to Iraq 21 Apr 07


282RA - If you look at the cities and other places that have been the most victimized, they are Shia. Shiites are not targetting Shiites. Sunnis are targeting Shiites. It appears that the bombs that have taken the greatest toll, have exploded in Shia towns, neighborhoods and market places.

The Bush administration SUSPECTS that Iran is arming the insurgency (both sides) but there is no proof that this is sanctioned by the Iranian govt. Its just more propaganda to deflect blame. In fact, the Sunni/al Qaeda militants have stated that they have the capability of making their own weapons. Some Iranian made weapons may have fallen into the hands of Sunnis but so have Russian and post Iraqi weapons.

I have no doubt that Iran is probably arming Shia Militia but al Sadr's army is mainly involved in reprisal killings. They are not doing the bombing. They are not suicide bombers and they do not set road side bombs. It is the Sunnis (who George Bush is protecting) that are responsible for most of the carnage in Iraq.
