Where are the US soldiers in all of this? Wasn't there a big stink when after the invasion they stood idly by and let the government buildings and museums be looted? If we are the occupying force, we should be obligated to keep the peace. This is utter bullshit.

1. I think I read that our military is stepping aside and allowing the Iragi
police forse to do this.

It is an attempt for them to take more responsibility.

3. The truth is, if the US forces go out to protect the mosques, casualties
will go up and people will once again see that Bush and his gang screwed up big time. I suspect they've been told to stand back and let the Iraqi police handle it. Except the police aren't equipped or trained to handle it.

I looks like civil war to me...

5. We can't even protect Christian churches in the rural South. This
should come as no surprise, even if it is not being done as a black op by the Bush Crime Family, which it may be.
