How Many Iraqis Have To Die

[cali]

each day and for how many days, before the idiot generals and rummy admit it's a civil war? My understanding is that approximately 50+ have been killed in sectarian violence each day since the bombing of the mosque of the Golden Dome 3 weeks ago. What's their magic number? 75? 100? 300? Shiites and Sunnis are starting to move out of neighborhoods where they are in a minority. Do these geniuses need to see large numbers of refugees massing on the borders trying to flee? Just how long can the assholes keep up the charade that there is no civil war?

1. The question is, when will Americans grow the spine to stop them?

Rumsfeld, the generals and all of Bush World won't stop their brand of "spreading democracy" on their own.

2. For some reason no one wants to talk about that little detail

I think the rational is that the Iraqis won't submit to our brave soldiers with their superior weaponry so that must make them Iraqis who are dying all terra-ists? Thats what it seams like anyway.

3. Until enough Americans die for the citizenry to demand withdrawal.

Then they can unstick themselves from the tarbaby, come home, and blame the left for the defeat.

See Vietnam for preview of coming attractions.
