63. Regarding the Sunni, Sir
It rather depends on where in the country you speak of. The Anwar Salvation group is a serious armed force based on a coalition of Sunni tribes, co-operating with the U.S., and engaged in bitter combat with the foreign jihadis, who managed to kill a few too many local tribal noteables in their attempt to bend the population there to co-operation with their presence. It is at this point a more reliable force, from a U.S. point of view, than any Shia unit in Baghdad or points south. It is not possible to sustain a charge the U.S. is engaged in any attempt to destroy the Sunni Arabs of Iraq; the facts simply do not suppport it.
