A civil war is one possible outcome. Right now it is more a guerilla war. Some of the attacks in Iraq already seem to have as their motive the beginnings of a power struggle that in the end will pit the major ethnic components in Iraq against one another. At the very least, the Kurds have a strong desire to create their own homeland, and the Kurds would doubtless seek to take a big chunk of Turkey with them when they go, which would mean a regional as well as a civil war. I would not describe the current situation as a civil war -- not yet -- but there are strong forces to take Iraq in that direction.
