#2 It is surprising that these attacks have been approved and supported by the Iraqi interim government.

And I thought it was only George Stephanapolous who was good at being deliberately dense?

#3 the sentiments of Shiites are like gunpowder that, if torched, will burn everything

I'm sure this was meant as a form of bravado, to show how valiant and dangerous Tater's gang can be. But this just shows how stupid they really are: burn everything rather than rebuild your country. Nice mentality.

#9 The U.S. and its lackey within the interim government should know that the sentiments of Shiites are like gunpowder that, if torched, will burn everything.

Fire can be put out two ways: dousing it with enough water, or depriving it of oxygen. Which method do you choose for your fires to be extinguished? Either way isn't going to be pleasant.
