Sunni insurgents hit two Shiite towns in two days with brutal bombings that killed more than 110 people, apparently aiming to scare Shiites away from a crucial vote on Iraq's new constitution. In the latest attack, a car bomb ripped through a fruit and vegetable market crowded with Friday morning shoppers. Destroyed stalls lay in pools of blood in the al-Sharia market in the southern city of Hillah, in Iraq's Shiite heartland. The scenes mirrored the devastation in Balad, the Shiite town in the middle of a Sunni region north of Baghdad hit by a triple suicide bombing Thursday, a far more lethal attack.

The insurgency is usually Sunni oriented but Sadr under patronage of Iran like any other opportunist doesn‚t mind to play in the hands of Zarqawi if Iran faces any pressure from the west on its covert nuclear activity. It is a typical grand coalition of 'thugs‚ where political aims become more important than blood of the supporters. Zarqawi the murderer of Shiites becomes the political ally of sorts in the rejection of constitution and continuation of violence.
