So much for staying on topic. |
Saddam's government was a secular Sunni government, he fucked over the autonomous kurds and the Shiites. The reference to the shiites comes from people like Al-Sadr, a big leader of the insurgency in and around Baghdad, he along with many of the Shiites are trying to take over the government and make it similar to Iran's seeing as to the Majority of the country is Shiite.
