"Iraqi's have free reign to kill opposing tribes as was told to President Dipshit before the war."

Free reign? I believe every man has "free reign" to kill any man, so what does that have to do with anything anyway? So instead of just spouting unsupportable rubbish, who told the president they would have such "free reign"?

"The US military is not a policing agency. It was never meant for that and it is not trained for that. "

While the US Military was never meant by design to be a policing agency, yes indeed they are trained in such matters as part of their urban warfare training and have carried out like duties many times in the past century.

"Sadly they will die shooting at both sides of the coming civil war."

If such a war errupts, I'm sure casualties will occur as they have been doing since the 1st troops entered Iraq, and likely at a ratio of the dead among the opposing forces as has been occuring since this campaign began. American soldiers are well trained to commit more of the opposition to their graves than themselves and do so.

No loss of life in war is ever good. Mothers, fathers, sons, and daughters all grieve for their losses in war, however, death of soldiers in war time is inevitable. Does the saying "War is hell" ring any bells?

"Another dictator will have to emerge to end the civil war. He will have to kill some of his so called own people to restore order."

Time will certainly tell if there is any truth in this statement, but simply throwing a statement like that out there won't hold any water, sorry.

"You also bought into the BS that Saddam committed massive atrocities when he did not. Most of the "atrocities" are US propaganda aimed at controlling the worlds opinion about Saddam."

And you can back this statement with what evidence? Again, just making a claim like this does not give it validity, proof is what's needed to back such a claim.

"That sunnis and shia have been fighting long before Saddam does not contradict one immutable fact. Saddam stabilized the country."

Stabilizing a country through oppression of its people, propaganda and fear is certainly one way of achieving that goal. My question to you is if you feel such methods are just?

Saddam may well have stabilized the country, but at a cost of personal freedom of the peoples there, much less the right to hold any opposing views to his own. So do you think that was a good or just thing simply because his iron fisted actions managed to make it happen?

"Mrkim .. There is no such thing as a terrorist. That is a bumper sticker word for the stupid."

Really? What term would you affix to the people who strap themselves with bombs and head into crowds of civilians, pack cars with explosives and explode them in busy areas, or commandeer airplanes loaded with fuel and civilians and then fly them into buidings filled with other civilians? What term would you use to describe these individuals if not "terrorist" ?

To me, terrorist is the term I and many others use to describe these individuals. Soldiers certainly doesn't apply to these cowards. Soldiers fight with honor and dignity. True soldiers would never attack a totally civilian target with the only goal of that action to inflict as many possible casualties upon unwitting civilans and instill as much fear as possible by their actions. That to myself and many others is what terrorists do.

"This civil war will be the basis for military leaders like Usama Bin Laden to formulate more rhetoric against the west. Thus creating more military actions by muslim groups."

If that's how it plays out it will only point up once more how easily led their simple minds are. True Muslims by nature are not violent. Justifying any actions of retribution by way of religeous beliefs is pure bull shit. Though I cannot deny it occurs, it is never just or correct and always goes against the teachings of the religeon the malcontents use to unite the participants.

"The US entering Iraq was probably the biggest mistake in any US president has ever made."

That is you opinion and you certainly have the right to hold it. Just please understand that it is indeed simply that and holds no more validity or truth than you yourself attach to it. This is the nature of "opinions".
