Shia Leaders Propose Dismantling of Iraq

Civil war? What civil war?

The Bush administration’s blind insistence that Iraq will not erupt in civil war received two major blows this week.

A political bloc of Shia Muslim leaders say that a plan to secede from the new Iraqi government and divide the country along religious lines is the only way to avert sustained sectarian violence. See article in the Los Angeles Times.

Meanwhile, on August 7, General George Casey admitted to ABC news that Iraq is poised for civil war, saying “A countrywide, a threat of a countrywide civil war, I think that, I would say, that probably is the most significant threat right now.”
