HOLY CARP!!!

This has been disheartening I agree. I am getting close to the point of thinking we should pull back and let the Baghdad showdown begin. |

Do you think there is already a civil war there? |

No. You can call it "low-grade" civil war as did a recent article posted here, but I think that sectarian violence is different. |

I am so adjective that I verb nouns!

Naming things, or not, seems important to the political rhetoric -- we must call this a civil war (with the notion that therefore the US has no business being in the midst of it) but god forbid we should call it a war on terror. :rolleyes: |
| The dogma lives loudly within me. | |

You're suggesting that the fighting between the Sunnis and Shi'ites is a War on Terror? If the two sides are each terrorizing the other, is it still a War on Terror? Or rather a war *of* terror? Or perhaps a war of terrorists? It's all quite confusing... |

It is but I don't believe in questioning authority. That would be wrong. |
