#1 What strikes me about these mosque bombings is that they are mostly Shia mosques and Shia parishoners being attacked. The conventional wisdom prior to GW2 was that the Shi'ites (post-Saddam) would not hesitate to give Saddam's Sunni brethren a good ass-kicking and score-settling; but from what is reported here and elsewhere in the Blogosphere, the Sunnis are still busy being the aggressive troublemakers, and the Shia are taking it in the neck. |
