Michael Schwartz Analyzes Car Bombings In Iraq
Michael Schwartz, "professor of sociology at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, says "Don't be fooled by the press coverage" of car bombings in Iraq. "The car bombs are not detonated at random, nor are they primarily directed at Shi'ite mosques," he says in an indepth analysis in the June 8, 2005 edition of Asia Times Online.
"In fact," he noted, "only a handful have been targeted primarily at civilians - the vast majority are aimed at recruits or active duty members of the Iraqi police and army; the civilian injuries are - to use the ghoulish American military jargon - "collateral damage" See "Car bombings: Iraq's time bomb" for Mr. Schwartz's analysis.
