About Those Iraqi Security Forces

To add a bit more to this morning's post on increasing the end-strength of the Iraqi security forces: according to Major General Benjamin Mixon, commander of U.S. troops in the Iraqi north, members of those same security forces collaborated in the attack on the al-Askari shrine in Samarra. Mixon says he's going to reinforce Samarra -- with another Iraqi Army brigade.

Did you mean to say Iraqi security forces may have collaborated in retaliatory attacks on Sunni mosques? The linked articles don't indicate they attacked the Samarra mosque.
