#1 This is interesting - between the above article and this one we learn that the Shiite Interior Minister and the Sunni Defense Minister are now cooperating/collaborating to fight the 'death squads' and to fight AQ plots against the government (or at least appear to be do so.) Maybe it's just me, but that smells a little like 'progress'.

#2 Indeed, Glenmore. One can hope, anyway.

#3 Is this the "big bang" that al qaida was talking about last week?

#4 As a supporter of the war I find the infiltration of an Iraqi ministry at a high enough level to enable hundreds of AQ in positions of securtiy for our top people nt a little scary.Arabs may well be the most treacherous and ungrateful bastards on earth.Very scary.

#5 "Arabs may well be the most treacherous and ungrateful bastards on earth."

Says it all.

#6 Scary but not completely unexpected.

If one shrinks his/her thinking to the level of these barbaric, pre-civilization era bastards, such a plot is downright inevitable.

Moreover, at the rate of Iraqi recruitment (can't be fast enough for McCain and the donks), you are bound to have a 10 to 15% rate of subversives.
