I was just reading that. I have a feeling this thing is going to explode. The bombing of the mosque was just not good and wrong. I agree alicia-W

The term civil war is like an oxymoron to me...NO wars are civil in actuality.

I think they call them civil wars is because it results within civilians (e.g., within the citizens within a country). Just my thoughts...

You're probably right...it just seems like the words civil and war in reference (at least) to combat in a conflict cancel out each other so to say.
