#3 Not likely. When the story broke, news reports had 36 of the 37 were wearing Kurdish pants. Whenever the Sunnis point fingers, 3 point back to them.

#4 The only thing stopping civil war in Iraq now is the US presence. The Sunnis need to get a clue and to do it in a BIG hurry. The Kurds and Shia would, left to their own devices, quickly make Iraq a Sunni-free area. I'd bet they're going to get the chance to do it. Payback's a mother, Sunnis, and if you don't grab this last chance for peace, you're going to find that out in a hurry.

#5 how can a large group of individuals and vehicles move at such a late hour in the night

"Just taking a few suspects to look for arms caches, nothing to see, move along"

#8 Ya know, this is starting to sound just like the US of A, where everything is Bush's fault, according to the Dems. (And prolly vice-versa, I s'pose.)

"How else could {insert whatever transgression} unless Bush and his puppetmaster, Karl Rove, either knew about it or sanctioned it?"

#9 A lot of the Sunnis are only going to be happy if Sadam is back in charge. I say give them thier wish. Send them and Sadam to Hell and he can be thier leader there.
