re: Blowing up the mosque in Samarra - a transparent motive
False-flag synthetic terror "events" generally advance long-term strategic objectives.
Here, we have a top insider among the neo-con policy gurus, explaining a central motive for staging the bombing of a highly symbolic target:: the Great Golden Mosque of Samarra.

TONY JONES: Tell me what sort of trends you're talking about? Because I'm
still struggling to understand how it would be anything but a strategic
disaster.
DR DANIEL PIPES: Well, in the first place, there would be fewer attacks on
our forces in Iraq as they fight each other. More broadly outside Iraq.
There would be fewer attacks on us as the Shi'ites and the Sunnis attack
each other...
...TONY JONES: I'll come back to this question about the democracy
experiment in Iraq in a moment, because there is a change of mood, it seems,
among a lot of commentators in the United States on this question, on both
sides of politics. But first, if your strategic assessment is right, or even
if it's right, surely the United States would have both a legal and a moral
obligation to step in between the two sides and stop a civil war?
DR DANIEL PIPES: I don't think so. Let me give a bit of history. Post-World
War I the British and French victors, extracted, as historically victors
had, money and other benefits from the defeated German and other powers.
Post-World War II, the American and other victors did not extract money from
Germany and Japan, but gave them money and it worked. Germany and Japan were
rehabilitated. Since 1945, 60 years now, the notion that the victor pays,
rehabilitates has become an assumption. I have nothing against it. It worked
very well in 1945 but I don't believe it's a legal and moral obligation. I
believe when one goes to war, one goes to defeat one's enemy not to
rehabilitate them....
...TONY JONES: Isn't it far too cold-blooded a calculation for the invading
force to say, "Well if the Shi'ia and Sunni are shooting and killing each
other, at least they're not shooting at us?"
DR DANIEL PIPES: Let me emphasise I do not want them to be shooting each
other. I wish that the communities found a way to work together. I'm just
saying should there be a civil war, it is not necessarily all that bad for
our interests....
========================
There you have it: a transparent MOTIVE for programming chaos, confusion, shock and awe .... to advance long-term plans for the balkanization, break-up and future plunder of Iraq.
As to MEANS and OPPORTUNITY (bombers "disguised" as members of Iraqi police/security forces) ...
... well... we can certainly figure that out for ourselves, cant' we ?
