Sunnis Attack Their Own Over Iraq Constitution:
BAGHDAD, Iraq — Sunni insurgents determined to derail this weekend's constitutional referendum attacked the largest Sunni Arab political party Friday, bombing and burning offices and the home of one of its leaders after the group dropped its opposition to the draft charter.
The largest Sunni Arab political party has dropped its opposition to the draft Constitution. This appears to make it probable that the draft will pass in tomorrow's election.
And with the insurgents targeting other Sunnis, it appears that popular support for those insurgents among those Sunnis may be at risk.
If the Constitution passes, it will be a huge advance for Muslims and the Mid-East, demonstrating acceptance of Democracy. It will also be a historic achievement for GWB and the U.S., in bringing Democracy to the Mid-East.
