Just think about it - whether or not you like your current president, how would you think about another country setting up a military occupation in your own country? Were I living in Iraq, I would welcome the Americans with open arms!! And I'd wager that most Iraqis will feel just this way as soon as Saddam and his clan have been overthrown. Remember that Saddam and his officers peppered their troops with lies (in addition to peppering the area behind them with mines to prevent their retreat) about American cruelty should they surrender during Desert Storm.. We captured TENS OF THOUSANDS of Iraqis, and they quickly recognized that Americans were the vicious animals they'd been told we were... Don't even think that those "realizations" didn't permeate Baghdad when those prisoners were repatriated. Hawk
