BAGHDAD [MENL] -- Iraq's Sunni majority has become a leading contributor to
the revolt in neighboring Syria.
Diplomats and officials agreed that Sunni tribal leaders were helping
organize a massive flow of weapons and fighters from Iraq to Syria. They
said the flow stemmed from several Iraqi cities, including Qaim in the west
and Mosul in the north.
