Who is responsible for the attacks on the Shiites?

Sitting around with co-workers, drinking coffee and wearing tinfoil hats. Everybody had a different theory, I believe each one was somewhat plausible.

What do you think?

1. I don't think it's the US

Shrub desperately wants good news in Iraq right now.

[DuctapeFatwa]

2. To most of the voting class, dead Muslims is good news

[Cat Atomic]

3. Honestly- why would anyone think the US would do it?

I think Halliburton and Bechtel would prefer it if the Iraqi population was silent. They want easy control of resources- not a civil war. That's just bad for business.

Personally, I think it's the Sunni.

5. Reducing the native population will facilitate securing America's oil

4. Why would Al Qaeda target shi'ites?

Anybody who voted thusly care to answer?

7. al quaeda are sunnis I believe

6. CIA did it

civil war's just what the doctor ordered.

[Kimber Scott]

8. All are plausible,

but I doubt it's the U.S.. It throws a very bad light on us. Of course, the light is already bad. What a can of worms we've opened up. :-(

10. This regime...

Acts as if the Truth will never see the light of day. Look at the lies we know about, what is there we haven't yet discovered?

9. If the US DIDN'T do it, they are cheering on those who did.

If you think of War as Profit for Halliburton, you can see how the bu$histas would have a vested interest in unrest. The more troops we have to keep on foreign soil, the more money Halliburton makes, and oh, by the way, fuck the planet.

11. A civil war...

Would give us a "side" to put in power and support with troops. A government we could hand pick based upon US Corporate ties. Then we would be obligated to stay to defend the puppet government of Dictator X from the will of the people.

Vietnam anyone?

Iraqinam - New and improved. More folks killed in your name with your money.
