The less mosques the better.

This attack was probably done by al-Qaida, and it's likely to cause more trouble for our troops.

Actually, I think that this is the terrorist way...if at first you don’t succeed... All-in-all this will totally backfire and our troops will suddenly aquire unforseen allies. This was an al quaida big time blunder.

I'll bet that it was Shite done as an excuse to whack more Sunnis. Probably that chubby boy diddler, Sadr.

If his Mahdi army isn't fighting something, they have no reason to live.

Correct. I was here when they bombed this mosque last year. All hell broke loose and our troops and other Americans were at increased risk. We are already on higher alert now because of this and we're hearing some explosions (not that that's all so unusual.)

So far, it doesn't seem to be too crazy in Sadr City, but it took about a day or so for that place to come unraveled last time this happened.

I suppose whether this is a good or bad thing depends on one's point of perspective.

Trouble that could easily be solved with 24x7 saturation bombing.
