So Iraq's second city (Mosul) and indeed the whole of the province (Nineveh) is now under the control of Islamist militants. As is Fallujah, and other major locations. What was the point of the war? Or no, forget that. There wasn't one. At least the solution is straightforward, even if it hasn't yet occurred to Mr. Maliki. Just pick up the phone and get our renowned Middle East Peace Envoy Blair to come flying in. I fully expect calm will be restored within minutes of his arrival. |

Genuine question, do you mean Islamist fundamentalists? If not what makes them militant? |

If the coalition's initiative fails in Birmingham, we'll end up with a similar situation there and elsewhere in the country. |

I'm relying on you Dally to give me at least 40 mins notice of when to get the hell out of this city when the fundamentalists take over city hall, until then I'll stay in my hotel for as long as I can sending back eye witness reports - I'm your very own Kate Adie, but not as butch. |

I'm not such a student of religion that I want to propose definitions, but seemingly the attackers simply intend to secure a fully Islamic state run in accordance with their version of Islam. Maybe you could say a fundamentalist is one who can be as fundamental in their beliefs as they want without necessarily forcing it down other peoples' throats, whereas a militant may be one who decides that it is their duty and life's mission to impose their views on everyone else by threat or force, or get a perfect 10 if they die trying. |

The mess that is Iraq has nothing to do with Bliar, apparently. It's all down to the Syrian conflict and our inability to involve ourselves in it for the greater good. He really is a total fooking t0sser! |
