Idiot of the day: The Sundries Sack

By VictorM:

Right wingers are obsessed with labels. Really, when they have no interest in discussions of substance (when do they ever?) they resort to labels. This idiot is worried about the term "civil war" to describe what's going on in Iraq:

Apparently, Iraq is about to slide into a new civil war because the Iraqi government is taking out after the Madhi Army.

So, it’s civil war when Sunni and Shia fight. Now, it’s also civil war when Shia and Shia fight...

Because the MSM has a narrative and darned if the real world is going to get in the way of that.

According to Merriam-Webster, here's a definition of civil war: : "a war between opposing groups of citizens of the same country." Really, it's that simple. That Iraq is in the midsts of a civil war is a fact. And that the USA is involved fighting a civil war in a foreign country is another fact! Idiot.
