I may have the sunni/shiite factions mixed up though, I don't remember for sure.
Thats very true, thats why i didn't wanna point specific fingers because i dont know for sure whose fighting who...

But, the point i was trying to make is that there are shiite iraqi soldiers that are fighting alongside the US and that group of people are the ones celebrating Saddam's sentancing.

I can only think ahead to when im 45-50 years old and looking back on this war... i wonder how the outcome will be..?
