Iraq,if the current democratic leader gets assassinated,would that constitute civil war?

Question

civil war,i think its there already but for those who insist it is not,,,if the countrys westernized leaders are killid,,,,is that not proof of civil war? ,,,its total madness there now so such killing could happen...what you think?

Answer 1

Leaders do not have to die for it to be a civil war. It IS a civil war because you have one faction within a country fighting another faction inside that same country for control. I don't care what the White House wants to call it, those who decide not to be ignorant will recognize a civil war when they see one.

Answer 2

It is moronic to think we are not already seeing a civil war. You will read every denial under the sun concerning this question. It's not Iraqis doing the fighting it's the Iranians. Here's the point, who cares, who knows, the violence is out of control. You don't see any kind of troops going around putting the violence down do you? Only zealots, and don't call yourselves patriots, believe there is still not a civil war. That attitude is getting our kids killed for no good reason. Peace

Answer 3

Nope..just another day in Iraq...sad to say. Iraq is crying for a religious leader to come out and provide peace to the country and I think you may see such a leader come out shortly and grab control....remind you of anything that happened say back in the late 70's in an area pretty close to Iraq?

Answer 4

Civil Way is when the citizens of the country are involved in war.
In Iraq, we have gangs fighting each other helped by foreign riff raff.

Answer 5

I dont understand, why all the desperation to define and declare Civil war? - So What?
I didn't (and dont) see the concern about Darfur!

Answer 6

I beleive the reasons they say it has not happened yet is because the armed malitias have not squared off against each other yet
