How are the Sunni and Shiite Arabs in Iraq feeling about the U.S. air campaign against ISIS? Most of the media coverage so far has only focused on how the Kurds and Assyrian Christians feel.

Thanks for the reply! :)

I just have one more question. I keep hearing about Maliki being a sectarian politician and isolating the Sunnis. How exactly has he done this? I know he disbanded the Iraqi Awakening Council (Sons of Iraq) who were instrumental in defeating Al-Qaeda in 2008 and that he has purged Al-Iraqiyaa but I don't know of any other specific actions.

Why exactly are the Sunnis so angry with Maliki?
