Profusion of Rebel Groups Helps Them Survive in Iraq
By DEXTER FILKINS
BAGHDAD, Iraq, Dec. 1 - Here is a small sampling of the insurgent groups that have claimed responsibility for attacks on Americans and Iraqis in the last few months:

Supporters of the Sunni People. The Men's Faith Brigade. The Islamic Anger. Al Baraa bin Malik Suicide Brigade. The Tawid Lions of Abdullah ibn al Zobeir. While some of them, like the Suicide Brigade, claim an affiliation with Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia and Al Qaeda claims them, others say they have acted alone or under the guidance of another group.

NBC reported last nite that the Shia militia have now taken over much of the police force in southern Iraq, centered on Basra, and that the Police Chief of Basra openly admits that he doesn't trust the guys underneath him. The Basra region is now as divorced from central Iraq as the Kurds are up north. The splintering of the country continues.
