>> In particular, the authors find that the presence of Saudi militants in Iraq has been overstated - estimating they make up 1 to 2 percent of fighters there - but say that most of the young Saudis fighting in Iraq were not violent before the war.

LOL! What else do you expect a Saudi study to say? There was another study about a year ago that looked at the videos of last "will" of suicide bombers before they went off to their missions. They found that about 80% of them were Saudis...there is no way in hell that you can find Iranians willing to kill themselves for Iraqis who were fighting them for 8 years and to undermine an Iraqi regime that is friendly to them. It just does not compute.
