What is happening in Iraq is not a war. America Invaded and occupied Iraq, there was never any declaration of war. Perhaps a 'War on rhetoric' would prove benifitial. The killing of civilians in war has been a long time method of striking fear into the people and to demoralize them into thinking they are losing the battle or war. Remember England bombed Berlin, Germany bombed London etc etc. What I fear as an Australian is not so much the Taliban, Al Queada etc it is America. Look at countries that have been allies of the USA in the past. They look rather bleak now when they were so well before being allied to the USofA.
