Do you even know what a civil war is? A civil war is a war in which parties within the same country or empire struggle for national control of state power. There is no doubt that this is going on to an extent amongst the Kurds, Shiites, and Sunnis... but the larger conflict is between coalition/Iraqi soldiers against a strong foreign born insugency. How is that a civil war?
