Stop using “Sunni triangle”

Why using such a term “Sunni tri­an­gle”. This is wrong and it’s dis­crim­i­na­tion against many Sunni peo­ple who don’t accept the killings in Iraq

* When did this term started?

* Who is the “genius” started this definition?

I am from a Sunni par­ents no one in my fam­ily col­lab­o­rated with the Bathists ever, no one liked Sad­dam and no one sup­ported Sad­dam, it is another way around my father been jailed because he was com­mu­nist and my mother been fired because she was a com­mu­nist and they are both Sunni.

Peo­ple ask me all the time “are you Sunni or Shia?” which means “are you a ter­ror­ist or a vic­tim” and I am sick of it, telling peo­ple I am from Iraq makes them scared, tell them I am from Sunni fam­ily and watch the shock in their faces.

Since when the Iraqis used such a terms it’s only started after the war. Even geo­graph­i­cally it’s a wrong term, to give a region a name based on faith, eth­nic or believe is wrong. Can I say for exam­ple Evan­gel­i­cal (Bible belt) South­ern States? Bush tri­an­gle in the South­ern USA? Jew­ish tri­an­gle in (I don’t know where).……etc.

We are in a new era of Iraq and it’s very impor­tant to boost the national iden­tity feel­ings between the peo­ple and call­ing the region Sad­dam sup­port­ers tri­an­gle is much accu­rate and have a very good pos­i­tive effect with the war on terror.

    It’s just a phrase we made up, for con­ve­nience. Please, please under­stand that most Amer­i­cans under­stand that Sun­nis are many peo­ple, who hap­pen to include ter­ror­ists. And lots of the ter­ror­ists are non-Sunni. We know this. So just because we use this phrase does not mean we think all Sun­nis are alike.

    I’m sure the peo­ple of Fal­lu­jah are just as out­raged that their name is asso­ci­ated with the ter­ror­ists oper­at­ing in their city.

    Sad­dam Sup­port Tri­an­gle takes too long to say. Do you have a shorter ver­sion? What do you call it yourself?
