LIAR! The suicide bombers AND insurgents are 90+% Iraqis you lying dufus. Only 5% have been foreigners. As usual you are a liar and full of sh*t.

Suicide Attacks Rising Rapidly
Increasingly, the bombers are Iraqis instead of foreign infiltrators.

Coalition officials acknowledge that the numbers show an Iraqi-dominated insurgency. Fewer than 5% of those killed or captured were foreigners, one official noted. He also described the influx from abroad as making up a "very, very small part" of the estimated 12,000 to 20,000 insurgents.

Maj. Gen. Munem Said Abdulqadir, head of the Iraqi police force explosive ordnance demolition team in Baghdad, faulted the now-disbanded U.S. Coalition Provisional Authority for barring even mid-level figures of Saddam Hussein's regime from the new security order.

He said he feared there were thousands of technically savvy and disaffected Iraqis, mostly Sunni Arabs, vulnerable to recruitment as suicide bombers.
