The Washington Post has a very interesting front page story on the suicide bomber factory (I’d link but I’m having laptop problems too dull to explain). NPR had a similar report. The most interesting part isn’t that these guys are foreign fighters, it’s that they seem to be as or more interested in fighting Shiites than fighting Americans. We know that the Wahhabists consider Shiites to be almost subhuman heretics, but one would have thought the foreign fighters pouring in would make attacking America job #1. It appears the fear of democracy in Iraq — and the Shiite empowerment that would bring — is still a big part of the story.
