That does not stand up fuzzy
Iraqi people are not "terrorists" any more than you or I. They are (or were) also not interested in embarking on stupid attacks on the US or anywhere else - but, who knows, there are probably a few more now who do have very good reason for revenge.
I don't know about the internal problems there - prob few do unless they live with it - and that's not likely to go away anytime soon. The puppet government is a farce and populated by crooks who employ death squads.
The US govt thought they were smartasses and elected to start the ball rolling on this shit by invading based on lies - but in reality had no clue of the realities of Iraqi culture. (Seriously believe the higher levels of US govt were totally genuinely clueless - events have since supported this view).
Bets on, the US will try and find a way to "escape" with a face of "we have liberated Iraq and it is now the responsibilty of the Iraqi govt to take over" and attempt to proclaim a success
Either way, reality is a swell of "anti US" throughout the Middle East and and increasing desire for revenge and Iraq will not change. Whoever the strongest thug is - they will be the leader and supported by more thugs - all with an "anti US" agenda. Sadly, it's a total fuckup, but not a surprise.
