Con_touring, I agree that it was not our intention to be occupiers.
Historically, we have expected that the liberated would be grateful and help us and themselves, or at least would not be hostile. I do not think we were preparred for the apathy of the Iraqi general public. Is their dislike for the US is too derp for them to seize this opprotunity?
I would like to see a story exploring just how many of these insurgents are former Iraqi military or foreigners, and how many civilians they recruit. I think that the former Iraqi soilders have found religion, or least enough of it to join with the Islamofacists.
