"They are the most malicious people. They are not educated, they are barbarians. They said they would bring us democracy but they scare women and children. We will resist them to the depth of our soul," said Rashid Jasem, 38, a hardware shop owner, whose store was peppered with bullet holes.

Now you know why his store was "peppered with bullet holes." Perhaps they should have destroyed a fourth building used by insurgents.

Are you trying to prove the point of the man you quoted in your post?

American troops do not target civilians! If we kill a civilian by mistake in a fire fight we try to make ammends through monetary compensation and heartfelf apologies.

We may occupy Iraq. But there is a huge difference between our occupation of countries and that of say Germany, Soviet Russia, and even Great Britain.

We are there to do good. We are not in Iraq for our benefit. But for theirs.

I think such a plan is stupid and a Neocon fantasy- but while our troops are in Iraq they will conduct themselves as moral Americans.

Those who say we should "MOAB" entire cities, advocate torture of suspects, the killing of entire villages, are the real enemies of our troops on FR. And you don't have to search hard to find such posts unfortunately on this site nowadays.
