All this arguing that pulling out American troops from Iraq would lead to civil war--- what is this, if not a civil war???
http://www.nytimes.com/2005/04/30/international/middleeast/30iraq.html?th&emc=th"BAGHDAD, Iraq, April 29 - Insurgents determined to destabilize Iraq's new government executed a devastating series of coordinated attacks on Iraqi forces on Friday, detonating 12 car bombs across greater Baghdad and striking military targets throughout Iraq. At least 40 people were killed and more than 100 others wounded."
<snip>
"The strikes Friday morning came after a momentous and tumultuous day for the new government. After three months of delays that American officials said gave new strength to the insurgency, the dominant Shiite alliance won approval for a new cabinet - but not before angering Sunni political leaders who said they had been shortchanged. "
"....at least 480 Iraqi policemen and troops have been killed by insurgents in the last two months,"
We shouldn't have gone & we shouldn't stay---we've made such a mess.
