I agree that MOST Iraqis agree with that kid.

I disagree that it's just a small group of "dead enders" that are not too crazy about seeing Shiite control of Iraq. The Sunnis have controlled Iraq for hundreds of years and their jobs, prestige, and maybe thir very lives may be put at risk if a fundamentalist Shiite regime comes to power.

The same with the Christian community there.

If the U.S. could wave some sort of magic wand and assure them that their lives and livelyhood won't be jeopardized then I'm sure a LOT more Sunnis would follow that kid's lead and turn in everbody they could find that looks suspicious.

But, as it is the U.S. can't even guarantee that they'll be able to buy gasoline or walk to the local market.
