At the Al Tuheed mosque, congregation members accused Dr Al-Dabash of having served in Saddam Hussein's secret police, and of having recently studied in Saudi Arabia, where, they said, he was imbued with the Saudi's extremist Wahabi Islamic doctrine.

That alone, if true, should merit scrutiny of his activities.

IMO, we're likely to see such inter-religious violence within Baghdad, but I'm not certain it will spread out of the city into civil war.

But there could be some ugly moments within the city, which is essentially 1/2 Sunni and 1/2 Shiite.
