I don't think it's really a civil war.
I don't want to speak for DisplacedFlamesFan, but I took his comment to mean "Bush should use his considerable influence to get this situation under control". Normally I don't like George trying to get control of anything, but right now it might not be such a bad idea considering how crazy things appear to be getting.
You may not recall the Americans doing anything more than lending moral support to the Israeli cause, but they have sent over a lot more than just warm feelings, I can assure you of that.
