At this stage of the war, having just recently gained much cooperation from the Iraqi population, I don’t think this is a good idea! Right now, I don’t think alienating anyone is a useful, or wise, idea. Later? Yeah. But now, incidents like this will be turned against us as propaganda.

Agree strongly. Soldiers are there for a specific purpose - spreading Christianity is no part of that purpose. The soldiers who are trying to proselytize are antagonizing the locals and endangering the success of our campaign to pacify Iraq.
