In reality, according to my friends, the vast majority of Iraqis are decent, generous, friendly people who want nothing to do with the war. I actually have a lot of sympathy for the average Iraqi who does not care about global politics and just wants to go to work, put food on his family's dinner table, and raise his kids.
That pretty much describes most of the people on the planet. We all have the same wants and needs...Peace -> Freedom -> Security -> Peace.
