body count

every day, if you listen/read/watch the news, you learn about another pile of dead, tortured Iraqis found in and around Bagdad. They are being killed by ethnicity and Baghdad in 2006 is quickly becoming like Yugoslavia 1991-92. Sunnis are the new Croats. Or Serbs or whatever. I am not taking sides on this one.

This is the very definition of a civil war. I don't want to hear any more euphemisms: "high-level sectarian violence" or "ethnic strife" or "freedom's birthing pains" etc.

It is ludicris not to see that Iraq is going down the toliet in a hurry and the US miliary is powerless (either politically or practically) to stop it.
