Holy Shiite!

At a briefing by U.S. officials who coordinate government contract work here, there were warnings of a probable increase in tensions between Shiites and Sunnis during the holiday period, which ends today. A security contractor with access to U.S. military reports said Shiite mobs had attacked suspected suicide bombers three times in the last few days. On Thursday, a group of Shiites participating in a march beat to death a passerby who appeared suspicious to them.

Shiites “are taking the law into their own hands,” the contractor said.

Holy crap. The Shiites aren’t kidding around.
