#1 I'll take Iranian proxies for a thousand, Alex.

Ask yourself who has the most to gain from a fractious Iraq.

#2 Today is the critical day, but I am 'pleasantly' surprised that there have been so 'few' killings so far. Given the magnitude of the instigation and the justified rage of a huge number of Iraqis, I think it is commentary on the fundamentally civilized nature of Iraqis that wholesale vengeance has NOT broken out.

#3 This whole episode is a lesson in the egomania of the state of Islam.
Flaming lunatics led by egocentric madmen shooting and slashing in all directions, Islam 2006.

#4 Form what I'm reading at other sources, it seems that things are cooling off, that religous leaders from both sides are calling for calm and that people are actually using the event to pull together rather than break apart.

This dome destruction could be a watershed event, just not the one that the MSM was hoping for.
