is very different. I know one Iraqi citizen who we haven't heard from now for weeks. He does not hate Americans, but over time came to hate the invasion and apologized to us for his feelings. He never knew when his house would be blown up, or his children not return home.
I spoke to one soldier who agreed with the war, but told me that the Iraqi people don't trust them and they can't trust the people, making it difficult to do anything good.
I don't think you can take the word of a few people who were there making money. I've spoken to a few 'civilian contractors' also. They want the war to continue because as they say 'it's a pot of gold' for us.
Every poll taken in Iraq says they want us out. Even the Pentagon isn't denying this anymore. Would you want a foreign army here? No country wants that ~ especially when their resources have been stolen, $23 billion dollars of Iraq money missing ~ barely any electricity, water polluted, hardly any medical supplies and house raids every night, Abu Ghraib and other prisons filled with Iraqis. I don't know how anyone could think the Iraqis are happy about this horrible situation.
I think if we leave, they will take care of the situation themselves. They're perfectly capable obviously, otherwise we would have won this war by now, don't you think?
