Iranian Shi'ites helping Iraqi Sunnis????

Eliminate Ignorance's picture

I haven't posted any blogs for the past 3 months but now I'm back. It is brought to my attention that the bush administration is stating that Iranian "agents" are somehow collaborating with Iraqi insurgents by selling weapons and explosive devices to them. Now pay attention people, it is known that Muslim Shi'ites and Sunnis dislike each other so why would Iran Shi'ites bother helping the sunnis in Iraq who happen to be the minority in Iraq. If Iran did want to help the Iraqi insurgents they would call for the rest of the 85% of the Shi'ite muslim population living in Iraq to take up arms against the U.S invading forces which would definately overwhelm U.S and allied forces. As a result there would be more casualties on the allied side.

In recent interviews, Bush is trying to make Iran the enemy now, this is what he said during an interview:
"It makes sense that if somebody's trying to harm our troops, or stop us from achieving our goal, or killing innocent citizens in Iraq, that we will stop them," Bush said. "It's an obligation we all have ... to protect our folks and achieve our goal."

Right "our goal" this is more like your goal, the only one killing inocent civilian Iraqi and especially our troops is you Mr.Bush, I remind everyone that the civilian death toll in Iraq has reached over 65,000 and 3,000 for our fellow americans fighting in Iraq and people
still ask themselves why does the Middle east hates us? What' sad is that there is some people out there that got fooled by Dick Cheney, thinking that Iraq was responsible for 9/11...Oh well only 2 more year to put up with this administration, that is if Bush doesn't "abolish the elections due to National Security implications."

Does the blogging section work like HTML? I forgot how to bolden the words. Take care people.

The "Iraqi insurgents" are both Sunni and Shi'a. That's the cause of most of the violence - Sunnis bllowing up Shi'as and vice versa. Iraq and Iran are both Shi'a majority. I don't see, based on this, why Iran coudn't be funding some of the insurgents. Obviously Iran can't make every Shi'a in Iraq rise up (as you seem to imply).

this is what he said during an interview: "It makes sense that if somebody's trying to harm our troops, or stop us from achieving our goal, or killing innocent citizens in Iraq, that we will stop them," Bush said.

Do you disagree that we should stop people trying to kill our troops and Iraqi civilians?
