from SLATE:
The Los Angeles Times goes with reports that Iraqi Sunnis have set up a parallel intelligence agency within the Iraqi government to counter the predominately Shiite official agency, which is entirely funded by the CIA.... The LAT's piece on parallel Iraqi intelligence agencies focuses as much on political maneuvering as it does on ideology, since this shadow intelligence bureau was born as much out of personal rivalries as political realities. Sadly the tale of spy versus spy doesn't have a clear hero, as both organizations appear culpable of a range of illegal activities.<
