Shi'ites burn six Sunnis alive in Iraq


By ASSOCIATED PRESS
BAGHDAD, Iraq


Revenge-seeking Shi'ite militiamen grabbed six Sunnis as they left Friday worship services, doused them with kerosene and burned them alive near an Iraqi army post. The soldiers did not intervene, police Capt. Jamil Hussein said.

The savage revenge attack for Thursday's slaughter of 215 people in the Shi'ite Sadr City slum occurred as members of the Mahdi Army militia burned four mosques and several homes while killing 12 other Sunni residents in the once-mixed Hurriyah neighborhood, Hussein said.


QM?

That is a pretty sick title.

When you've finished wanking yourself down to a bloody stump over dead people would it be too much trouble for you to actually make a coherent point rather than posting random news stories?

They're not random. A thorough analysis will show that they are a masterful collection of the inane and myopic. It takes guts and dedication to scour the ether for such material. :notworthy:

Going nowhere (elsewhere) fast. Important news story, but the way it was presented in the OP leaves not much room for discussion.

I don't think QuestionMark? has ever discussed anything he has ever posted.

It's like someone sticking their penis through your letterbox and shouting "COCK!" at the top of their voice. You may say "God. What a prick" but the nob-wielder would only take it the wrong way.

I fail to see the importance of this story, other than in a "religious idiots kill those of a slightly different religious persuasion" way. It's not as if there wasn't a sectarian civil war already in progress.
