Sunni Insurgents In New Campaign To Kill Officials

The New York Times:

Sunni Arab extremists have begun a systematic campaign to assassinate police chiefs, police officers, other Interior Ministry officials and tribal leaders throughout Iraq, staging at least 10 attacks in 48 hours.

Eight policemen have been killed, among them the police chief of Baquba, the largest city in Diyala Province. Two other police chiefs survived attacks, though one was left in critical condition, and about 30 police officers were wounded, according to reports from local security officers.

Did they clear these plans with General Betrayus? I am sure he will want to include their victims in his body count.

Lieberman asks for sense of the Congress supporting arming Sunni Insurgents if armed by our side.

This must be a 'new' strategy, eh?

So the war zone seems to be still dangerous, especially for supporters of the new government. Go figure.

You mean the Civil War of course.

Gee I just can't figure why the Shiites are supporting the new Democratic government but not the Sunni's?

Why. Why. Why.

I hope those Sunni's realize the folly of attacking the Iraqi Police Force that great bastion of freedom and justice everywhere in Iraq.

Bob. We could just type your posts for you as they are all the same.

Meanwhile I heard those brave, loyal Iraqi cops killed a whole mess of "insurgents" last night. They even work when they are off duty!

It seems that most of the killing is being done by Sunni groups whom are funded by Saudi Arabia and the U.S yet we have to bomb Iran because they support the shiite militias which in tern support the Mailiki government??

Does any of this makes sense to anybody?? LOL

Yes, but heavily in Raytheon, Boeing, and Northrup Gruman.

WHEN WILL Saudi Arabia be blamed for funding Sunni insurgents in Iraq; after all a member of the Royal family even told Cheney that this was their just response to a Shiite-led slaughter of Sunnis?

Oh, I forgot - the Zionists have made it clear that Iran must be laid to waste and thus will keep their mouths shut about the Kingdom.

Right... The Zionists control EVERYTHING! Anything anyone does throughout the world which you don't like was caused by the Zionists. Remember when you stubbed your toe last week? Yep... Zionists!

Are you a moron, a bigot or both?

the MSM didn't report this because it doesn't support the Zionist agenda of weakening all regimes in the ME except the US and Israel.

notice how ALL the MSM Zionist-controlled networks called Ahmadinejad a dictator which is so FAR from the truth it isn't funny.

Dumbass. Zionists have spoken out. But then again, you only trash right wing nutjob Zionists and ignore the majority. One would think that some other group would try to bring Saudi Arabia into the light. Blame yourselves, asshole.

The word ARAB should be more prominent. What is the Arab eminate nations, Wheres the Saudi's- feeding the insurgency to help Bushco keep his War going. How many men do these countries have in the coalition? None, a handful. Of course, because we are their hinch men.And they depise US as master's often do their servants. This is their Neighborhood- Where the hell are they???Pocketing the"lost" money and arms? I think we are still looking at a RED HERRING IN IRAQ. There is still the rest of the web they have weaved, not just the spot we're currently stuck in.

is that pipeline to Israel built yet?

unchecked capitalism has struck again.

americans still believe your american style capitalism is working?

it is called brainwashed and it works if you say something long enough and often enough it becomes reality for the masses.

have Americans awaken yet? not really most think if they put in another political party that will solve the problem.

it is the economic system not the politicians they are just pawns in an unchecked capitalistic economic ideology that is eliminating the middle class in this country.

Wait a minute, aren't these guys our new buddies out killing Al Queda? Guess that was just another teeny miscalculation by the great Gen. Betrayus.

Not a bad thing if the "officials" are corrupt criminals like 90% of the lying American war profitiering garbage "officials" in the US.

It's not sunni insurgents, it's al queda tring to create chaos and instability.

What? you say we told you that the surge is working and we drove al queda out of those areas.

Well uh, it's the iranians, yea that's the ticket. it's the iranians sending in terrists to kill americans.

What? you say it's iraqis getting killed.

Well, well, uh, it doesn't matter we need to bomb iran, then all the violence in iraq will stop

What the snake doesn't seem to understand, is that AQ was invited into Iraq, by Bush in his "bring it on speech". An outfit that Saddam would not allow in Iraq.
The right-wing has no sense of history and no real future, other than continual war for continual profit.

[ceasenake]

07:49 AM on 09/26/2007

I understand that there hasn't been much of a break from the bad news coming out of Iraq as portrayed by the media.

To say now the Sunnis are trying to kill officials seems odd because this conflict has been portayed as bloody struggle with no respite.

I guess there was a respite - it just wasn't reported.

[progressivegreg]

10:48 AM on 09/26/2007

No, we're "kicking ass" in Iraq! I know that for a fact, "the decider guy" told us that and we know he never lies. (except when his lips move)

I didn't know these savages had stopped trying to kill each other.

I guess I missed that good news.

The savages, are the ones that orchestrated and supported the illegal invasion of a sovereign state that resulted in the needless slaughter of tens of thousands if not more, innocent Iraqi women and children.

well said. One of the long term goal for the real architects of this war was definitely to divide and destabilize. 'Divide et impera' worked perfectly from their perverted prospective. Now the same serial murderers are just a few moves away from the next war.
