Seems more of a revenge attack since AQ had taken out a few Sunni leaders prior to this.

i thought that first, too, but then thought twice, seeing that some sunni sheichs have started since spring, I think it was, to form a sunni opposition, or a second front againt foreign terror groups (it's not only Al Quaeda). then a key figure oif these sheichs got killed, and then another one recently, which might have been the reaction from AQ&foreigners to this new front. So now the Sunnis strike back, also reacting. And the others will answer.

And so another wheel starts turning. However, these certain sunni sheichs took the initiative in opposing foreign groups.

Also, this sunni "alliance" includes only parts of the Sunni clans, by far not all.
