As of Feb. 27, five days after the explosion, no organization or state had publicly accepted responsibility for the bombing [of the Imam Ali Al Hadi shrine in Samarra, Iraq]. This alone shows that whoever carried out the bombing intended to throw the blame for it on other forces. The bombing was certain to incite battles between the two major Arab communities in Iraq—Shiite and Sunni. If such warfare broke out on a large scale, it could lead to fragmenting Iraq into multiple mini-states more easily manipulated by imperialism.
