There is much speculation about the war in Iraq. Is it justified? Can it be averted? If not, when will it begin, as well as when and how will it end? But the war is on already. Unpopular as it is in most of the world, it is actually escalating behind the scene. If there are any questions concerning the war, they are about its end. But even this is naive to boot. Does war ever end? Or does it only wax and wane?
