Al, re: The fact is that the neocons who control U.S. strategy have no interest in preventing a civil war but only in inciting one. Sectarian tensions were virtually unknown in Iraq before the U.S. invasion. And in fact the Iraqi Shia fought loyally as Iraqis against Iranian Shia in the disastrous Iran-Iraq war.

Interesting, essentially what Ted and I were talking about. Maybe the neo's are "dumb like a fox" and chaos in the ME was their ultimate goal.

I'm not sure I buy it... I would prefer to think they are dumb as a rock and incompetent than think that they have snookered you, me and the rest of the world. It's bad policy either way... but I would like to think that I was smart and they were idiots.

Maybe not.
