"I fear the Western powers will go on trying to promote the idea of civil war as an alternative to their occupation and oppression and I hope very much that that won't work. As I said to you before, Iraq has never had a civil war. Iraqis don't want a civil war. The only people who fear or talk about civil war are the Americans and British." Robert Fisk
I agree with Fisk here in that civil war in Iraq has been used as a way to justify the continued occupation.

Right now it is a war against occupation.
Why would anyone want a civil war? That doesn't mean it won't happen, or that it won't be better than continued American presence there.

Iraq has been invaded & occupied many times and they have NEVER had a civil war against each other.
The ONLY ONES saying there will be a civil war are, FUNNY ENOUGH, the BUSH CARTEL and the US StenoMedia!
WOW what a COINKY DINK!
