Insurgentes e Milicianos no Iraque, a disputa entre xiitas e sunitas

Insurgentes sunitas seriam os responsáveis pela série de atentados a bomba que atingiram o Iraque causando a morte de mais de 60 pessoas. Após a saída das forças americanas, a situação de instabilidade social torna-se crescente, motivada por disputas políticas entre xiitas, que detém o governo, e sunitas, que são minoria e recentemente perderam cargos no governo. Os sunitas operam um movimento insurgente, e os xiitas formam diversas milícias.
