How does one define a conflict? Is the sectarian violence going on in Iraq, a "high level of slaughter " or a " civil war"? Which of the two is more acceptable? Is it not a civil war if one of the parties is not Iraqi? Does it even matter to the 1313 Iraqi civilians who have been officially killed? Or has it become a mere statistic to the Americans and the Brits? 1313? That's ridiculous. There are more people killed in the US out of gun violece.
To get an Iraqi perspective this article is a good one. Surprisingly not many of the responses take the Americans as liberators.
