OK I have a couple of questions.
If the article suggested that coalition forces had killed the villages would be more inclined to believe the article or take it as gospel as you put it ?
Do you doubt that any part of the article is true ?

are you saying I should believe ALL of one, but none of ALL?
And do you believe ALL That you read? or do you too doubt the fullness of this iraqi on iraqi slaughter?

important to note that coalition leaders at least didn't force people to blow themselves up in market places.

Are you trying to claim that the civil war in Iraq is all propaganda ?
It is true that the sons and daughters of US millionaires don't end up in the US military but I will leave that for another topic.
Beheading a contract who is trying to make life better for everyday Iraqis is no differnt from killing innocent kids in my mind. To be fair most people thought that Saddam possessed WMDs before the invasion. The lack of WMDs in Iraq makes a mockery of the decision to invade Iraq but that doesn't take away from what the Islamic extremists will do.
If the Islamic extremists didn't target the likes of schools in Afghanistan your logic might stand up to reasoning.

There is only one problem and maybe I wasn't clear enough in my above post. I never meant to imply that Iraqis are being forced to blow themselves up by there fellow citizens although there is the possibility of the likes of blackmail being used. My point was that coalition leaders didn't force the locals to unleash a civil war they just failed to military defeat the insurgency while it was beginning.
