It's good in one respect. The 'insurgents' are getting a taste of their own medicine. They will soon understand they won't get away with terror unscathed by some retribution.
The bad part is that this leads down the road to civil-war.I'd rather the Iraqis supporting the government arrest these guys and put them on trial for subversion, but the country probably isn't civilized enough for that to work right now.
