#1 Funny, I don't recall the outrage from the Sunni community for the continuous slaugher of innocents at markets, workplaces, funerals, weddings, soccer matches, and other everyday events by foreign nutcases and home-grown extremists drawn from or sheltered by Iraqi Sunni towns and neighborhoods over the last two years. Suddenly even Saddam, one of the great killers of modern history, is quotable for his touching concern about innocent Iraqi life. As many have noted, when Shi'a are slaughtered it's an "insurgency," but when a comparative handful of Sunni dies it's "civil war" (and described in tones far more ominous than you'll find used for your typical terrorist outrage, for which clinical neutrality is the accepted mode of western media).
