Iraq civil war warning for Blair
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/5240808.stm
<snip>
Civil war is a more likely outcome in Iraq than democracy, Britain's outgoing ambassador in Baghdad has warned Tony Blair in a confidential memo.

William Patey, who left the Iraqi capital last week, also predicted the break-up of Iraq along ethnic lines.

He did also say that "the position is not hopeless" - but said Iraq would remain "messy and difficult" for the next five to 10 years.

The Foreign Office said it did not comment on leaked documents.

1. This has made global security, terrorism and the potential for
retaliation against Amurka by peoples who have lost their loved ones to this presidential wet dream more of an issue imho. This however is not a good reason for impeachment hearings. There was no sex involved.... unless you consider the screwing bushco has given America a good enough reason.
