Annan: Iraq on the brink of full scale civil war
Edited on Mon Sep-18-06 04:44 PM by Bluebear
UN Secretary General Kofi Annan has warned that Iraq is in danger of sliding into "full-scale civil war".

He called for urgent action from Iraqi leaders and the international community to bring Iraq back from the brink.

Mr Annan was addressing a meeting at UN headquarters in New York attended by Iraqi President Jalal Talabani and US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

He spoke on a day when more than 50 people died in Iraq in bomb attacks, shootings, and kidnap killings.

1. Really? You don't say...
but fearless leader says it is not so, so you must be lying :sarcasm:

Now on a serious note, didn't we all predict this?

Oh I forgot, they are busy creating new realities, and a civil war is not part of that new reality
