Salah- Do you believe the US is responsible for inciting this sectarian violence as part of a “divide and conquer” strategy, or do you think it is just a result of the power vacuum? I’m not sure myself and would be interested in your views.
My talking about Iraq/Iranians or Iran, this isn’t means I am racist or heated some one due to his colour or origin, but things in Iraq quite different.
The West accepted immigrants all sorts, they granted them their citizenship this done with believe in human right and freedom, In Iraq things different.
The Iraqi/Iranian (not all of them) not working for Iraq as Iraqis citizens, but they worked to gain power rule the country as part of Iran, this is against the will of majority of Iraqi, this isn’t happened any where in the world.
I did ask these guys (Bader militias) they are violence and killers and every Iraqi knew them, but why US trusted them? US needs force to control Iraq there were Iraqi Army they can help, why US not tried to use them?
Join C, I don
I don’t have any answers, Salah. I don’t know much about how deep the animosity really is between Sunnis and Shiites in Iraq, and I don’t trust what I read in the English language press. I have stopped trying to figure out what the U.S. “strategy” is in Iraq, because I have concluded there is none. I think the Bush people are just trying to get as much of their domestic political agenda enacted as possible before the whole fiasco in Iraq collapses around them. And they’re doing pretty well at it lately (the domestic agenda, that is).
”Salah. I don’t know much about how deep the animosity really is between Sunnis and Shiites in Iraq”
John C, there is nothing between them, in old days, this is during 1970s, we were in the university (BTW, the universities is mixture male female even in Class, and our friends also mixture this is ordinary in Iraq since 19950s), if some one speak about these things (Sunni Shiiat groups or things) most of us will be surprised or look to him shamefully, we were Kurds Arab, Sunni Shiites no differences.
This is can be found in large scale on the streets and towns. As I understand you or others (in US or Europe) they think there is streets or cities just for Sunni or Shiiat nothing of this on the ground.
I lived in Babylon in the street were our home from one side Sunni neighbor, the other side is Shiiat neighbor, across the road were Christian neighbor, after a few years one of the neighbors moved and a new neighbor they were (Mindaieen, or Subah) (you need to read about them to know more, they are not Muslims).
This in large the living style around Iraq, Yes there are differences in the percentage of Sunni more their or the number of Shiiat their same for Kurds.
As a families structures it
700 or 800 violent deaths at the Baghdad morgue has been a relatively consistent number for bad months for a while. The cause is highly varied, including massive crime, it also includes Shiite killed by Sunni.
However there are consistent and increased reports of Sunni killed frequently by elite units.
I doubt if any in the American system want civil war, elements of the insurgents are trying for it. The situation would be impossible to control and could inflame the middle east. The US could be caught in the middle.
Simply recall the American sponsored death squads of Cenral America particularly el Savadore and how the US Marines set up the Nicaraguan National Guard who in turn murdered Sandino and you will get a pretty good feel of what the current administration is up to in Iraq and just who is ultimately behind the mysterious murders.
“Good feel of what the current administration is up to in Iraq and just who is ultimately behind the mysterious murders.”

Salah,
I agree completely with your last post, and would add that all if Iraq’s major Arab tribes are mixed Sunni and Shi`a, as are most of the smaller one. From what I understand the same is true of the Kurdish tribes, though honestly I never cared enough about that question to inquire.
Special Correspondent (who left Iraq a few days ago and is incommunicado at the moment, except via a mutual friend where he is now) had a lovely long conversation recently with one of his elderly uncles who was a member of the Iraqi Parliament in the early decades of the State. He asked him about relations between Kurds and Arabs and Sunni and Shi`a in those days, and his uncle told him there was no Kurd or Arab or Sunni or Shi`a, there was only Iraqi. Thst is still true, I believe, for most Iraqis at least in day to day contact.
Shirin,
Bremer with his poisonous plan used and introduced these differences and the western media and propaganda follow suite.
With regret I feel in the west that the people (majority) driven by this media even without thinking.
In fact there society more divisive than ours, we are same tribes with same blood in our veins, this is the thing US, Bremer and other can not understand.
Or history told us, this is not first time Iraq distraction its one of many during last 5000 years but Iraq still their and the wealth their oil wells in Iraq, so let them dream.
Just today, her we go
“British forces believe a new wave of guerrilla attacks in southern Iraq is being supplied and backed from Iran.”
