>>"And they don't like it. Not one bit.. They don't like having Foreign Fighters in their country any more than they like US forces here. But given a preference, I can almost guarantee you that they prefer the US and coalition forces over being occupied by Zarqawi and his QJBR (Al Qai'da in Iraq) foreign fighters."<<

Amazing...94% of the "Foreign Fighters" are Iraqi. Last time I checked 100% of the Brits and US forces in Iraq were "Foreign Fighters". BTW, are you fluent in Arabic? You seem to think you have some insight into the "soul" of the Iraqis. Based on your past posts you have been wrong about everything in Iraq.
