Ex-PM Allawi: Iraq Is Almost In A “Civil War”

HeadlineJul 11, 2005

Iraq’s former Prime Minister Iyad Allawi is warning that Iraq is on the verge of a civil war. In a recent interview with the Sunday Times of London he said “The problem is that the Americans have no vision and no clear policy on how to go about in Iraq. The policy should be of building national unity in Iraq. Without this we will most certainly slip into a civil war.” He went on to say “We are practically in stage one of a civil war as we speak.”
