Iraq on Verge of Civil War - Bush Administration Denies

Despite the highest recorded road-side bombings and civilian and American deaths and injuries this year in Iraq, the Bush administration denies the country is in on the verge of civil war.

Acording to the New York Times, August 17, 2006,

"Senior Bush administration officials reject the idea that Iraq is on the verge of civil war, and state with unwavering confidence that the broad American strategy in Iraq remains on course. But American commanders in Iraq have shifted thousands of soldiers from outlying provinces to Baghdad to combat increased violence in the Iraqi capital."

According to documented sources, Sunni Arab militias and Shiiite militants, continue their violent efforts against American military and Iraqi civilians.

The toll is rising on a daily basis, revealing a failed strategy by the Bush Administration to establish a democratic government.

Bagdad's violence in the streets has doubled, and civilian casualties are at its highest since the occupation began.

It is the opinion of many that the Iraqi occupation has been handled incompetently, the reconstruction plans falling short, as the government and American military underestimated the Shiite militias retaliation to the occupation.

The Bush administration lied to the American people and the international community for their reasons to invade Iraq, (WMD'S), and currently denies the quagmire that this war has become.

Despite the billions of tax dollars to continue the occupation, American and innocent deaths are rising to all time highs, and a democratic Iraqi republic is looking more and more like a pipe dream.

Rather than deny the mounting deaths and failures in Iraq, the Bush adminstration should state the facts and develop a strategy for total American withdrawl.

Though other "unknown" agenda's by the Bush administration appears to be their priority despite the death tolls rising.

Iraq has become a quagmire of unnecessary deaths akin to Vietnam.
