So how do you account for what the Canadian journalist witnessed?

Perhaps the more telling sign are the millions of Arabs who've marched in the streets in opposition to this war. You don't think the Iraqi people share this same Arab sentiment? Or do you somehow believe they are Iraqi Arabs are Arabs of a different kind?

I don't think all Arabs are a monolithic bloc. Those who've experienced Saddam's oppression first-hand would certainly see things differently from those who haven't.

Fact is, Arabs don't like US-occupation. It was the US troops stationed in Saudi Arabia that helped to spawn Al Qaeda in larger numbers. Just imagine how Al Qaeda will grow from the current Bush's campaign of US-occupied Arab territories.

And why have American troops been in SA? To protect SA from Iraq.

I doubt the US plans to permanently occupy Iraq.
