Get up to speed on our enemies. Al Qaeda is Sunni; Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia is gleefully blowing up Shi’ite shrines and murdering Shi’ites with way more efficiency than they kill our troops.

The Iranian Shi’ites and their proxies in Iraq (Al Sadr’s crew) are another set of enemies, but if we left Iraq, they and Al Qaeda would be going at it tooth and nail, but initially our main allies (among Iraqi Arabs, as opposed to Kurds) in the wake of the overthrow of the Ba’athists were also Shi’ites. Only now that they conclude that the Al Qaeda Salafist variant of Sunni Islam is oppressive lunacy are we picking up Sunni allies in Iraq.

...yet another denial. The Shiites are training Al Qaeda guerrillas in Iran and sending them to Iraq and Afghanistan along with Shiite guerrillas.

Next!
