Paul, I have two comments here. My post was of a fellow who actually lived WITH the Iraqis for several months, your post is from a reporter likely ensconced in a Baghdad hotel and rarely venturing very far. Of course there are always dissidents, but are they the majority or are they only the MOUTHY ones that seek out the reporters. Secondly, if the USA occupation is the only thing that they are upset about, that will change in the near future. Once the Iraqis have their own government we will ultimately be pulling out, thus that would diffuse that complaint. jdn
