Civil war now policy of Cheney and Rumsfeld in Iraq and Palestine.

It was not supposed to be like this.

Chalabi was supposed to be running Iraq in the interests of the US.

How the hell did the Iranians take over?

And Hamas in Palestine?

Well the only cure for that is a long and brutal civil war in both places.

The next step will be the assassination of leading Shias clerics as well as widespread

Slaughter of civilians.

The end result that is hoped for is the return of a pro-American strongman like Saddam in his time.

It will be difficult with the Shias controlling any organized military and police there is.

The only solution, rumsfeld says, is to put Saddam back in.
