Slow down and think before you post, then. They really have gotten weak. <<We're talking about them omitting part of the data that relates to sectarian violence.>> <You may be talking about that. I'm talking about them not pointing to data which is not directly related to sectarian violence.> Bombings are directly related to sectarian violence. <<If the assertion is that this omission/manipulation is justified because bombings aren't really sectarian violence, that's just ridiculous on its face, and I've presented plenty of links to show that.>> <It's not rediculous, and your links didn't show anything about car bombings.> One was about a bomb factory (not ied's). The majority of bombs in Iraq today are car bombs. Because they weren't discovered already placed in cars, you're going to pretend they wouldn't have ended up there? More willful obtuseness. <it makes no sense that Sunni insurgents would be setting off bombs in Sunni neighborhoods, except perhaps at police stations, but that is only a minority of them.> <Iranian agents would also set off bombs in Sunni neighborhoods. You might remember that we caught some a while back.> Perhaps. But that would be Shias killing Sunnis. Gee - sectarian violence. <<I'm sorry Doug, but your arguments here simply don't hold any water. You're being fooled by the most seductive force of all - yourself, and your increasingly desperate need to believe in this mission.>> <Both of your assertions are incorrect.> I disagree, and your own words show why.
