This is the same scenario as when the US supported and armed the Taliban in Afghanistan against the Russians! And we all know how well that went!
It's all about manipulating a result that will secure the oil that the US went to Iraq for in the first place.

And you know they are death squads. Shia outnumber Sunni about 4-1, The Sunni need all the help they can get.

Quote: American officers acknowledge that it is arming some groups that are suspected to have been involved in American attacks as well as link to Al Qaeda. Some American officers maintain they are simply arming both sides of a civil war.
Say what?! Talk about mindboggling, this is crazy.

No. I do not object and I do not consider them to be Sunni "death squads". I do wonder why you are posting an article from June as if it was breaking news.

Unfortunately, our country is led by someone like Bush. So many young men are being sent to their death without even knowing why in Iraq. It's really a big shame.

We must push back the insurgency in order to further establish democracy within the Bahgdad perimeters!!
All tribes must be seperated and pushed back.
