Iraq - Sunnis Turning on Zarqawi

Good news for Iraq and bad news for Zarqawi.

Instead, renewed apparent threats from Abu Musab al-Zarqawi to massacre both Shiite and Sunni "collaborators" have been warily received by many Iraqi Sunnis, leading the respected Sunni Association of Muslim Scholars to issue a statement strongly admonishing Zarqawi:

"There is no religious basis allowing you to take your revenge on the innocent while ignoring the true criminals, nor are there rules stating that the innocent should bear the consequences for the acts of criminals… it is impossible for someone who claims to rely on the laws of Allah to make his decisions based on emotions and personal grudges.
