if you don't think there's a civil war in iraq right now, you're an idiot. there's been a civil war going on as long as religion has been in creation in that area of the world. period.

Yeah, but the way you stated that made it impossible for anyone to take you seriously. I'm not trying to be an asshole, I'm actually trying to help you out.

I see what you're saying, and I agree with you. You're just going to completely fail at trying to sway someone who doesn't agree with you.
