The Sunni's have suffered for a year from these "Death Squads" operating with covert authority from the Interior.
When Negroponte was sent to Iraq, there was open disscusion in the Pentagon about the "Salvador Solution".
Just do a Google search of Salvador solution and you'll get plenty to read - but I guess our MSM is to busy to research their own articles from a year ago.
Now, they are shocked to hear of death squads. From Washington Post:

The burst of slayings and resulting accusations unleashed by the mosque bombing follow nearly a year of charges by Sunni leaders that Shiite fighters in militias and in the Interior Ministry were carrying out widespread killings of Sunni men. The bodies of hundreds of Sunnis have been found dumped in various places around Iraq, after the men were abducted from Sunni or mixed neighborhoods and communities.
After numbering in the dozens each month before the U.S. invasion and roughly 500 a month in the first half of 2005, bodies processed at Baghdad's morgue peaked at about 1,100 last July.
In November, 555 of the 886 bodies brought to the morgue bore gunshot wounds, as did 479 of the 787 brought to the morgue in December, according to the U.N. mission in Iraq, which tracks deaths reported by Baghdad's morgue.
The figures "are believed to underrepresent the actual number of casualties," the United Nations said in a report.
