Bush admin is cautioning everyone not to call what is going on in Iraq a civil war. It most definitely is. The Iraqi Civil War started yesterday.

4. It's civil war, as a result of Bush's illegal invasion
Edited on Thu Feb-23-06 01:29 PM by tridim
We need to make that clear too. It's 100% Bush's fault. This is his legacy.

Edit: Of course Rush will say, "This is exactly what the Liberal wanted, so it's their fault".

5. How we respond to Rush's bullshit
is by saying--

"There's a difference between 'wanting' something and having the foresight to predict it when you idiots were being blinded by your hubris."

7. my thought exactly after hearing about the
sunni attack on a shi'ite mosque. i consider that the true beginning of the civil war unfolding. there have been many smaller attacks but this was IT.

8. Not yet
When the Mahdi Army sweeps through the Sunni Triangle, then we'll have a real life Civil War.

It will be a short and very bloody one and Syria and Jordan will have a very big refugess problem.

way with the bombing of that mosque.
