It's just a matter of time. In a year or so the Iraqi army will be strong enough to take on the insurgency itself and I doubt they will pussyfoot around. The Sunnis are a small minority in Iraq and I think that in the coming years they will be in a world of hurt with only themselves to blame for it.
Look at the author's other articles. I don't know if I would call him pro-Iraq Liberation

Re the reporter, Adrian Blomfield, from http://yglesias.typepad.com/matthew/2004/10/diary.html
See also this sobering account by Daily Telegraph reporter Adrian Blomfield published in The Spectator (UK) -
"Why I turned against the war"
"Adrian Blomfield went to Baghdad as a strong believer in regime change. Now he thinks that Bush has messed up in Iraq — and should be booted out of the White House."

Oh, I know... I'm familiar with the Telegraph and the Guardian. The T has only ever been marginally better than the G, though. They're both way ~way~ more leftist than even our leftist papers here.
So the author of this article was against the war last year.
So we have an unconfirmed report of american soldiers burning a DEAD BODY, and its like World War 3, but when they burn our men alive, nothing. I don't expect much from the religion of peace, although it would be nice if they could muster just a tiny bit as much outrage over torching people alive as they do for outrages like a talk-show host pointing out they they support terrorists.
No sympathy for the contractors. Our troops are trigger happy killers?
What a sorry SOB you are.
You want kid gloves during a war, send policemen in there and let them read the bastards their Miranda rights. Our troops are fighting vicious enemy that would and have shown them no mwercy.
Let's take their oil first.
I keep looking for corroborating news sources... nothing.
Has our friend Adrian's hate for Bush finally sent him round the bend?
Stay tuned....
Your a year old, and don't know the rules yet?
Need a DU cleanup here, guys....
It's MOAB time.
Right now they have the choice of submission to American pacification as in Fallujah, or resistance.
If America turns tail and runs, the insurgency will be at the mercy of the Shia majority that has suffered a hideous murder and bombing campaign for two and a half years and Sunni/Baathist brutality for much longer, and wants blood. One word from Ayatollah Sistani and the Shia will depopulate entire provinces--it's the ancient way of the Middle East, after all.
I could be wrong, but I think the paragraph you are referring to was taken from the DU sight that he referenced earlier.
If I'm wrong, I gladly join the flaming party.
It's not his opinion, it's what the nihilists on DU are saying.
Excellent point, I had never thought about it in quite that way.
How ironic, the only thing keeping the Sunni's from being destroyed is that WE are fighting them.
The Libs want to bring the troops home in order to make us ignominously lose. Wouldn't they be pissed if we brought the troops home and caused us to win!
Dan Rather's head would explode.
We need to cluster-bomb the Sunni Triangle and not stop until the entire rathole is in smoking ruins.
Perhaps he's started dating Robert Fisk, and has fallen under his malign spell?!
B.S. - do it, do it right, do it right now!
