...recent weeks, even the majority Shi'ites-who most benefited from the fall of Saddam and from the democratic process the U.S. helped set in motion-have come to distrust the U.S. Many Shi'ites complain U.S. forces aren't doing enough to stamp out the insurgency, but are instead targeting Shi'ite militias who-in their view-are merely protecting the community from Sunni attacks...

Block has more than 50 books under his belt, but none are more endearing--or subversive--than his Keller novels.
