The Iraq Insurgency?

I would like to draw your attention to an interesting map of the Iraq "insurgency" at the Guardian Unlimited. This is an interesting map in at least two regards. First, it is from a private security company - not from the US military, or the Brits. The map depicts attacks only for September of 2004. According to this source, there were 2,368 separate attacks (certainly that level is not making the news). The second interesting item is that we are being told that all of the problems are in the Sunni areas of Iraq. You look at the map - it looks like there is a fair amount of activity outside those areas. Lastly, and by deduction, you can see pretty clearly where there is and is not an occupation presence in Iraq.
