Yes, they are being targeted as "collaborators", and that is the correct word to use in this context. I put it in quotation marks because it is a term that people making the attacks would use as the justification for the attacks. As for foreigners, there is no doubt that foreigners play some role, but out of 5,000 attacks "after the end of major hostilities" (now there is some deep wishful thinking for you), the vast majority of these attacks appear to be Iraqis targeting Americans and American "collaborators". These statements are true and reasonable. None of them makes me anything other than a thoughtful and observant person. Your ideological rants and feeble attempts to be insulting are another matter.
