More bad news 

Perhaps the most important incorrect prediction about the Iraq fiasco is coming true in time,

Sectarian violence has displaced more than 25,000 Iraqis since the Feb. 22 bombing of a Shiite Muslim shrine, a U.N.-affiliated agency said Tuesday, and shelters and tent cities are springing up across central and southern Iraq to house homeless Sunni and Shiite families.

The flight is continuing, according to the International Organization for Migration, which works closely with the United Nations and other groups. The result has been a population exchange as Sunni and Shiite families flee mixed communities for the safety of areas where their own sects predominate.

Also, those schools we reopened are now kidnapping territory.

But look at the positive aspects of this story. It's sectarian violence as apposed to civil war. We are seeing new communities spring up all across central and southern Iraq. . .
