Pentagon Cites Spike In Violence in Iraq

Averting Civil War Called Main Goal
By Ann Scott Tyson Washington Post Staff Writer Saturday, September 2, 2006; A01
Rising sectarian bloodshed has pushed violence in Iraq to its highest level in more than two years, and preventing civil war is now the most urgent mission of the growing contingent of 140,000 U.S. troops in the country, according to a new Pentagon report released yesterday.

How many people actually realize why the Pentagon is so apoplectically adverse to acknowledging that we are refereeing a civil war in Baghdad?

I Know you do, but how many Americans remember Reagan's getting our Marines to umpire for a very short time during the Lebanese Civil War (1975–1990) and what happened on 18 April 1983 (suicide attack at the U.S. Embassy in West Beirut) and on 23 October 1983 (a devastating suicide bombing in Beirut targeted the headquarters of the U.S. and French forces, killing 241 American and 58 French servicemen).

I know everyone reading your pages knows this history (although not as poignantly as the Pentagon). Literally millions of Americans are oblivious of USA's last experience in a ME civil war, so it bears repetition.
