Gen. George Anomaly Casey


"This level of violence, I think as we've seen, is an anomaly. We see these spikes periodically," Army Gen. George Casey said on CNN.

Iraq not on verge of civil war, US commander says

This week's surge in violence is "an anomaly" and Iraq is not on the verge of civil war, the top U.S. commander there said on Friday, after one of the country's bloodiest days since the fall of Saddam Hussein.

"These attacks of the past days, I believe, have been intended by the foreign fighters and the Iraqis that are supporting them to foment sectarian tension during a vulnerable period of the formation of the government," Casey said. "But I don't think it's on the brink of civil war."

Casey sought to downplay this week's violence.
