Description: The conflict between Iraq's Shia rivals has been ongoing since 2003. The Jaish al-Mahdi, or Mahdi Army, is loyal to Shia leader Muqtada al Sadr. Said to have 60,000 men in its ranks, it is by far the biggest militia in Iraq.

Jaipune ::: Favorites well what u are saying is true. but it was shias who fell for the trap first, americans created an all shia army and allowed the shia militias to slaughter anti american sunnis, then americans realised that shias were more faithfull to iran than usa so now its the turn of shias to taste sunni revenge with the help of usa. foolish shias asked for it 07-10-10 13:30:51 __________________________________________________

farookahmed04 ::: Favorites This is a great story that is generally missed by the US media - the Iraqi Shi'ites are not monolithic (and neither are the Sunnis) and the situation is far more complex than one would be led to believe. 07-09-29 20:39:37 __________________________________________________
ArcaneKarma ::: Favorites Sorry if some people have given you a thumbs down. I would like to know what you mean by "conflicting facts." I didn't see the conflicting facts, so please point them out. 07-09-29 06:48:59 __________________________________________________

Anntink ::: Favorites Thanks for the information. I'll have to watch it again (maybe more than once) to try to understand, but it was a great starting place - considerably more than I got from MSM in US 07-09-07 09:30:50 __________________________________________________
intelligentmuslim1 ::: Favorites all this propaganda about shias,american is using the media now to make sunnis kill shia so their invasion of iran wud be easy,wud muslims jus open their eyes instead of gettin excited over new converts to islan whch are 100 percent mainly agents. 07-09-06 12:30:53 __________________________________________________
mottnianhunter ::: Favorites The fact that Bush visited Anbar province seemingly unconcerned about security and the insurgents is significant. Anbar is widely considered to be the heart of the Sunni insurgency but Bush came and went without incident. The threat from Shia/Sunni Arab militant groups does not exist. The insurgency failed. 07-09-04 22:20:58 __________________________________________________
