A quick thought here.
You are correct in saying that the network statement is a trigger used to
inject routes into the BGP process. However, it really has nothing to do
with IBGP specifically nor does it in any way allow intra AS routing to
occur. Routing within the AS will always be the domain of the IGP. I'm not
sure if this was the point you were making or not.
