For all those who believe there is already a civil war occurring, I ask you: Who are the two (or more) factions fighting each other? All I see is a group of foreign Al-Qaeda fighters and former Ba'athists attacking Coalition troops and Iraqi Police. The momentum for the insurgency is coming from outside Iraq.

The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error. ~John Stuart Mill, On Liberty
