Oh, the burdens of an the imperialist power! I don't know much about Iraq, hopefully someone else will describe this as what I think it is - oversimplified categorization of the people of Iraq. Western powers learn the names of two or three communities in a country and they think they know it all. When in it comes to India, everything is described in terms of Hindu-Muslim conflict or the caste system.
