Reader comment on item: Civil war likely in Iraq: Pipes
in response to reader comment: An Important Distinction between India and Pakistan

Submitted by Bader S (Saudi Arabia), Mar 8, 2006 at 09:06

The illegal, and therefore criminal, aggression of the US against a weak, sovereign nation was the precursor for the chaos that ensued.

Had the US not invaded, the peaceful Muslim population of Iraq would not have been subject to the brutal killing on the hands of both the US and the Zarqawi terrorists.

Both the US and the Zarqawi terrorists are culpable for what is taking place in Iraq, but it was the US who paved the way for what was to be unleached in Iraq.

Those Muslims that you speak of did not suddenly appear from a vaccum. They emerged from an environment created by the US.
