There Has Never Been A Civil War In Iraq

This is being put forward by those opposed to the US involvement in Iraq and something the peaceniks/left wingnuts seem to forget it is hard to start a civil war when one side has all of the power and is ruled by a despot. At the same time for the US to not classify this as a civil war is making a big mistake. When the US leaves Iraq, and eventually they will have to do so, a bloodbath will occur among the Shiites and Sunnis and the winner, with support from Iran, Syria, et al, will join forces in trying to destroy Isreal.
