When there was no opportunity to gain power, there was no civil war. There were always differing sects of Islam, but there was no fighting when there was a warlord in charge: there was internal peace. By removing the warlord we created a void where leaders we needed, dissent was allowed and thus fighting ensues. By creating circumstances which allow for civil war- we are responsible for the fighting.
