But hey, wtf would they know abiout it. :D

There has NEVER been war between Sunni and Shia. Iraq is TRIBAL and BOTH Sunni & Shia belong to many of the SAME tribes.

The top 6 largest organizations in Iraq are SHIA AND SUNNI members.

The SHIA have ALREADY waged 3 major uprisings against US forces in Iraq and are again fighting in Basra.

Sadr City, Baghdad is a total war zone...the fighters are SHIA.

The insurgency is NOT between Sunni & Shia; it's betten IRAQIS and the invaders.

But it just doesn't seem to matter HOW many times the IRAQIS THEMSELVES say the Sunni-Shia divide is bullshit, it doesn't matter HOW many times real actual ME experts say it; Americans are gonna keep on insisting it's Sunni vs Shia.

It isn't.

And as for the bushCartel bullshit faslse dichotomy of pointing out how there's LESS FIGHTING down south, which is majority Shia area, and MORE FIGHTING in the majority Sunni area...WELL DUHHHH maybe because BAGHDAD (Iraq's largest city) and the MAJORITY OF THE US TROOPS are there.
