There is no nationality or religion here. These are just gangs and warlords fighting for territory. Nothing new.

those are the only three conditions the Qura'n staes for fighting.. 1- fighting for self-defense 022.039 To those against whom war is made, permission is given (to fight), because they are wronged;- and verily, Allah is most powerful for their aid;- 022.040 (They are) those who have been expelled from their homes in defiance of right,- (for no cause) except that they say, "our Lord is Allah". 2- defending people who cannot defend themselves from opression and tyranny 004.075 Men, women, and children, whose cry is: "Our Lord! Rescue us from this town, whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from thee one who will protect; and raise for us from thee one who will help!" 3- safeguarding religious fredom by protecting houses of worship, regardless of the faith of the worshippers.. Did not Allah check one set of people by means of another, there would surely have been pulled down monasteries, churches, synagogues, and mosques, in which the name of Allah is commemorated in abundant measure. Allah will certainly aid those who aid his (cause);- for verily Allah is full of Strength, Exalted in Might, (able to enforce His Will). as for taking Jews and Christians as friends God asked Muslims not to run for their protection in time of war and take God only as a protector

Imagine if the conservatives, reformed and Orthodox Jews were to blow each other up because of their different religious opinions? That is why we celebrate Hanukkah, to remind us not to kill each other as they do. When the Greeks tried to assimilate us to their beliefs over 2200 years ago. The Maccabees fought the Greeks and Jews who wished to assimilate. Ultimately, as far as these fanatics are concerned, may none of them achieve victory, and may their thousand year wars amongst themselves be God's answer to our prayers!

Iraq, as all of us know today is a big jungle, usa understand very well that stablize Iraq need the help of Syria and Iran, these two regimes want to survive more than anything else. should Usa let Iran/Syria conducting Iraq?, I think this is unrealistic thought, what will happen after that, the Iranian peacful regime would stop to enrich uranium? But this is still option that worth to try.

And in this 'peaceful' corner we have the Sunnis, in the other 'peaceful' corner, The Shi'ia. The referee will tell both parties, 'no kicking, no punches beneath the belt'. Bombs and honor killings are okay. Stoning, okay, assassinations, okay. Female circumcision, okay, salvery, okay. But, remember the rules, islam is a "PEACEFUL' RELIGION." Hell this is funnier than "Saturday Night Live." I particularly like the all male nuke death dance they staged in Tehran. Lovely, men with vials of death dancing together in a last effort to 'please their god'. hmm some pleasure...Strange 'religious' practices.

it'll take only one man turn it all back, beware return of the chosen one is nigh.
