#1 AQ knows that the new Italian LLL government under Prodi ran on pulling out troops from Iraq and are sympathetic to doing so. AQ sees the weakness and is targeting them so they either pull our early or so when they do pull out later this year either way AQ gets to claim they are strong and forced them out and to run.

The sad part is Prodi will probably pull all the Italian forces out early. And this article her if true just makes all the Italian elections even more pitiful and sad.

#2 To make C-Low's link clear, there is an allegation that Italian communists cooperated with Iranians to help kill three Italian soldiers in Iraq. That's different than what happened in Afghanistan. Take a look at the link, however -- if true, the communists need to be removed from political power in Italy.
