Who will they blame????
Reader comment on item: Limping away from a Shattered Iraq
Submitted by Froike (United States), Jul 9, 2009 at 13:07
We need to pray for the people of Iraq...Civil War is inevitable. As bad as Saddam was, he kept all the warring factions under his "Thumb of Terror" (similar to the ex Soviet Union). When Sunni's, Shiites, and Kurds start killing eachother with impunity what will the world community do? The UN, United Nothing, will sit by idly, watching the slaughter. I'll bet the Islamo Fascists will blame Israel and call it a Zionist Conspiracy?
