What's with these people? The footage I saw on ABC showed people cheering for the camera in front of the flaming wreckage. Is it just habit with them?

You are culturally insensitive. those "People" show pain by cheering and smiling. Either that or they thought they were welcoming American troops.

What a challenge it is, to govern any country with a population courtesy of Islam. Simple animals they are.

Saddam and many other dictators in the same predicament just kill what won't behave. Building jails or controlling them with laws is pointless. You can't build that many jails.

We have a real mess ahead, thinking these animals want a decent society. They've never proven it in two hundred years. I don't think they are going to be anything different.

Back in the mid 70's I was on a hill in LA and saw heard and felt a large tank truck full of ammonium nitrate fertilizer mixture explode and blow several warehouses sky high. Looked like and sounded like a small nuke.

I cheered too. :)
