Wanna know how Iraq's civil war is merrily skipping along?

So .... while we have averted our eyes from some fucked up mad muslim countries that our hard earned tax dollars go to,  to focus on other more fucked up muslim countries where yet more of our hard earned tax dollars go to,  what's been happening in Iraq?

NYTimes dated June 25
.... At least 32 people were killed  in Iraqi towns and cities on Tuesday, security sources said, the latest flare of violence in a country where sectarian attacks have become a frequent occurrence.
Two suicide bombers detonated explosive belts, one after the other, targeting Shiite Turkmen .......

Reuters dated July 1
.... A suicide bomber blew himself up at a mourning ceremony inside a Shi'ite mosque in Iraq late on Monday, killing at least 22 people, police said.
The explosion brought down the ceiling of the mosque in the town of Muqdadiya, 80 km (50 miles) northeast of the capital Baghdad, crushing Shi'ites who were marking the death of a police officer killed in a recent roadside bombing.
Police said the death toll could rise because people remained trapped beneath the rubble........

Dawn dated July 3
...123 dead in the past three days.  Attacks in Iraq killed 14 peopleon Wednesday, the latest in a wave of bloodshed mostly targeting Shia Muslims that has left 123 dead in the past three days amid fears the country is slipping back into all-out war.
The surge in violence has also wounded more than 320 others, and comes as the country grapples with a protracted political stand-off and months of anti-government protests, with analysts warning the deadlock is unlikely to be resolved at least until general elections due next year.
No group has claimed responsibility for the killings, but Sunni militants linked to Al Qaeda often target Shias, whom they regard as apostates........

Bill Roggio at LongWarJournal:
...While most of the current focus  in the Middle East is on the Syrian civil war, al Qaeda in Iraq has been flexing its muscle and has stepped up its suicide campaign as well as IED and more conventional attacks. At this time, al Qaeda in Iraq is evidently having no problem cranking out recruits to conduct suicide bombings. In the past 16 days, al Qaeda in Iraq has executed 14 suicide attacks, according to a count by The Long War Journal.
Some of the attacks have targeted security forces and government officials, as well as politicians. But others are clearly directed at Iraqi Shia and Turkmen. Al Qaeda in Iraq has been openly trying to reignite sectarian strife since February 2012, when spokesman Abu Muhammad al 'Adnani berated Iraqi Shia in a lengthy speech.....

Albawaba dated July 1
....At least 12 people were killed, most of them boys under the age of 16, when a bomb exploded at a football match in the Iraqi capital Baghdad on Sunday, Al Jazeera reported.
The evening attack took place in the Nahrawan neighbourhood, southeast Baghdad and left 25 people wounded.
The bombing is the latest in a string of attacks targeting football pitches or cafes broadcasting matches and comes amid a surge in sectarian violence throughout the country.....

AND while we can clearly see Iraq descending into one of the bloodiest sectarian  civil wars  in that region,  wanna know how the architects of the  USA's war on Iraq  and the fans of the architects are saying about the outcome of that war?   The USA  invaded a country that had not one single Iraqi in the jihadi attack  of  9/11  and by doing so an estimated 1 Million+  people have lost their lives due to the Iraq conflict.  Is it any wonder that the Muslim world can't stand the USA?

At ChathamHouse UK on July 4, 2013:
....As Iraq emerges from the shadow of war and occupation, it has sought to regain influence as a major actor in an ever-more volatile region. Though the 'new Iraq' attempts to project an independent foreign policy, renewed instability and violence inside the country has challenged the state's ability to develop a coherent and unified foreign policy stance.

Jane Kinninmont and Gareth Stansfield will present the findings of their new report which explores how foreign policy in Iraq today is developed and implemented, and analyses the extent to which Iraq's foreign policy aims are identifiable, independent and national in nature. They will also engage in a wider discussion with an expert panel on Iraqi foreign policy, particularly towards the conflict in Syria and how issues in neighbouring states are intertwined with domestic Iraqi politics..........
