Coming from a 'free nation' it is hard for me to understand why a country fights so hard for their religion when they claim they are not fighting a religious war. It seems they want everyone to be of their relgion and if you are not then they want to kill you.

Saddam was ruling with iron hands and kept the country united. Majority of people have voted for democracy. It is not a religious war and people are not fighting for religion. Main reason probably are existence of foreign troops and their own differences. USA is playing important role for a united and Democratic Iraq.

yes there is a religion war now in iraq. before USA occupation there was not. because saddam's state was not democratic but it was not a religion state. noone of these religion freaks could do anything in saddam's iraq. USA occupation, noone iraqi asked for it, let those freaks have guns and power and fight eachother. usa wants iraqis fight eachother. they dont want them united because no army can control a united nation. only educated people can handle democracy. that's why saddam governed iraq the hard way he did. but now usa opened the door to religion fanatics using them to create a religion war into a nation. this is a crime. and ,ofcourse, it's all about oil,money and power. (wich is the "free nation" you're coming from?)

First of all, it is called sectarian civil war to be precise..
why?? because USA destroyed the country and its fundamental sovereign department, including law enforcement. AND THE RESULT IS: a country pushed and pulled indirectly by different regional and international powers, and each is asserting its view or point the way it desires through a warlord or a political party.
JUST IMAGINE..EVERYONE IN YAHOO ANSWERS IS EMPOWERED TO REALISE HIS OPINION IN IRAQ, WHAT WILL BE THE RESULT?

If it is labeled a religious war, then it is also a civil war - Sunnis vs. Shiia vs. Kurd. If it is a civil war then they run the risk of it being settled by one or more outside forces and they lose the US & allied forces to manipulate. In deplomacy, semantics is everything.
