Iraq Civil War?

BBC News: Reports on multiple bomb attacks in Baghdad, Iraq, at present there are 63 reported deaths and 185 people have suffered injuries. Are we seeing the start of a Civil War in Iraq folks, it is a possibility, as the article notes the co -ordination of the attack has the fingerprints of al-Qaeda in Iraq, this group on the whole is Sunni. The bombs seem to have been targeted at the Shia population. The Sunni’s feel pushed to the outskirts of power within the new Iraq Government, with the US out of Iraq this has given the Sunni insurgents the chance to flex their power. The question is can the Iraqi Government deal with these terrorists attacks, or are we seeing the start of a Civil War. In a odd way it would please neither the US or Iran for the Country to fall apart, it would look like Obama has turned victory to defeat and Iran funds the Shia Party of the Iraqi PM, a Civil War would not help them in making a Iraq a Iran puppet.
