The west has tried to blame the escalating sectarian murders and impending civil war on the Iraqi peoples, whether it be Sunni against Shia or vice versa. this is a major tragedy that the "freeing" of Iraq should have foreseen.
This tragedy should have been anticipated.
I blame America and Britain.
There will be a massive bloodbath in Iraq. The west can do nothing to stop it now, But we should have never caused it.
Our governmental intransigence has forced this situation to overwhelm Iraq by our unending occupation.
We all know who is to blame. Shame on us for causing this situation.
But most of the shame goes to Blaire and Bush for allowing the situation to escalate further until a time when they mutually leave office.
They won't care then, they are no longer involved.
Or do you think there is another reason why Britain will leave Iraq first, around the time of our elections. then shortly followed by America, Some time later.
Guess which country has it's election first.
Just a hypothesis, never a conspiracy. you need at least 2 for that.
Impending, its full scale buddy.
You can blame this on any one person, any other person elected to president would have done the same. The executive branch isnt strong enough anymore, Congress would have decided to send troops to Iraq anyways. The thing is, is that the US is stuborn, and after Vietnam we arent about to give up again.
In the end, and I hate saying this, its them dieing not us, thats the way the world thinks. Yes, the average person feels sorry for that split two or three seconds whenever we hear another soldier dies or another bombing is announced, but it doesnt really stir anyone to action. The only thing that does that is if it actually happens here, to the common citizen. I mean look at how the nation responded to Virginia Tech, how the media broadcasted the violance and the emotional pain. And yet, even through all that people stayed ignorant of places like Somalia and Darfur, and all the other massacres that happen daily, but just arent 'important' enough.
Yes, this war has to end, but its obvious that the politicians arent going to end it for us unless more and more speak out. Over twenty million people demonstrated against the war, and that actual sent a message.
