They is not one group. You have different groups here. The insurgency is different from the groups carrying on this sectarian violence -- those tend to be the religious leaders on both sides. The insurgency appears to be run mostly by former members of Saddam's regime and former Iraqi military. They are the ones carrying out attacks on US troops and on the new Iraqi government. But the American media likes to lump them all together and call them all "terrorists". I don't even know why they use the word "insurgents". They are rebels.
