User ID: 78738 United States 05/10/2006 03:54 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ROBERT FISK: Is US Provoking CIVIL WAR In Iraq ? ... The Americans, my interlocutor suspected, are trying to provoke an Iraqi civil war so that Sunni Muslim insurgents spend their energies killing their Shia co-religionists rather than soldiers of the Western occupation forces. "I swear to you that we have very good information," my source says, finger stabbing the air in front of him. "One young Iraqi man told us that he was trained by the Americans as a policeman in Baghdad and he spent 70 per cent of his time learning to drive and 30 per cent in weapons training. They said to him: 'Come back in a week.' When he went back, they gave him a mobile phone and told him to drive into a crowded area near a mosque and phone them. He waited in the car but couldn't get the right mobile signal. So he got out of the car to where he received a better signal. Then his car blew up." ... "There was another man, trained by the Americans for the police. He too was given a mobile and told to drive to an area where there was a crowd - maybe a protest - and to call them and tell them what was happening. Again, his new mobile was not working. So he went to a landline phone and called the Americans and told them: 'Here I am, in the place you sent me and I can tell you what's happening here.' And at that moment there was a big explosion in his car." -------------- [ link to www.countercurrents.org] Last Edited by Account Deleted by User on 09/08/2011 08:52 PMWaist deep in the Big Muddy And the big fool says to push on |

Iraq is already virtually in Civil War 2. Even though Shiites and Sunnis hate each other-they still both hate Americans and will gladly call temporary truce join forces and fight them if need be-then go back at each other when mission accomplished. |
