Because Sunni's hate the Shia's and the Shia's hate the Sunni's and the Sunni's and Shia's hate the Kurds. Under Saddam's iron fist it was repressed. Iraq might have to split into 3 countries. Freedom has nothing to do with the bombings - freedom has allowed the hate to come out without fear of repraisals by Saddam's secret police. Don't blame freedom - blame "history", and they have a very long "history" over there. We have freedom in the US and you don't see car bombs going off over here every day do you? The Iraqi government has just taken over the Iraqi armed forces - let's see what happens from here. Admitted - things are a mess over there, but freedom is not the cause of the hate between the ethnic groups - its "history". Hopefully, things will improve shortly. The people are sick to death (literally) of the violence and the Iraqi's themselves will be the ones to fix this or let things slide into further chaos.
