The sad truth is that the Iraqi people could have had a society that offered them unique freedoms and opportunities. Instead they supported terrorists from AQ, Baathists and Shia militias and now their patron is looking to cut the country loose and leave them to their fate which is likely under Iran's heel. I hear stories that 30,000 people are the ones making the trouble for the rest but I don't buy it. The Shia and Sunni hate each other for their differences in worshiping the pedophile, piss be onto him so much that they have thrown away a chance of a lifetime.

Thirty thousand people dedicated to make trouble is a very large bunch. You have to consider the greater number who support the gunmen and their relatives who at least tolerate them. Look at Ireland.
