2. Sadr is blaming the Americans for starting the sectarian war?

The NY Times reports this weekend that most of the death-squad victims are Sunnis in Shiite neighborhoods, who are seized by death squads that witnesses report wear black. The victims turn up dead, missing fingers and toes, with acid burns, with wounds from power drills. Sadr's own militia, the Mahdi Army wears black, and it is believed by many Iraqis that they are indeed guilty of these atrocities. According to the NY Times, some Sunnis are turning to the Americans for help.
