Civil War Looms With 68 Killed in Baghdad AP - 26 minutes ago BAGHDAD, Iraq - Sunnis and Shiites traded bombings and mortar fire against mainly religious targets in Baghdad well into the night Tuesday, killing at least 68 people a day after authorities lifted a curfew that had briefly calmed a series of sectarian reprisal attacks. At least six of Tuesday's attacks hit clearly religious targets, concluding with a car bombing after sundown at the Shiite Abdel Hadi Chalabi mosque in the Hurriyah neighborhood that killed 23 and wounded 55. A separate suicide bombing killed 23 people at an east Baghdad gas station, where people had lined up to buy kerosine.

6. You're right, so obviously Yahoo is lying |
|
they have to be. Our Great Leader is always right. If He is wrong, it is the fault of the person who found out.

7. Yeah, he gets all his news from the news. |
|
He won't notice the people crying and asking for help and not getting enough comforting by the gvt until he sees it on tv (relates to Katrina thread elsewhere).

3. How much more can these people take? |
|
First Iraq/Iran, then Gulf War 1, and then the occupation and the insurgency and now this. How can you raise children there?

12. They Can't Raise Children.... |
|
We've been there so long and they hate us so much, they are raising future insurgents. I feel so sorry for the people who are trying to cope with this insanity...Riverbend, for example. How can the children come out of this experience without being affected? Bless their hearts.

Slowly, slowly, the tide is turning.
A few months ago these words were verboten.

9. Iraqw has been "on the verge" of a civil war for 3 years now |
|
How long can a country be "on the verge" of anything? When will the corporate media stop prefacing it with this "on the verge" crap and just come out and say it? it's almost like they are trying to give Baby Bush an out, to suggest that there might not be a civil war and everything will turn out just fine.

sorties to drop the pamphlets to inform them they were not in civil war ? We told them, what's the matter with them?
Can't they follow instructions ?

23. Now, correct me if I'm wrong...but isn't this... |
|
...the same insurgency that's in it's "last throes."?
I thought we were turning a corner.
Or has that been canceled due to the corner being blown up?

|
See this UPI article! Kudos to NNN0LHI for this thread! Numbers have been grossly underreported! PB

25. Those are the bodies they've found during curfew and while... |
|
...ducking bullets.
I'm sure it's a higher figure than 1,300.
And, what about non-fatal casualties? Or, soon-to-be-fatal casualties?
We're about to turn the corner...directly into the treads of Soviet-era tanks.
