of course there you are assuming that every person killed by US forces in Iraq is a "soldier"

most of the casualties arnt. im not saying the US is evil blah blah.

but alot of innocent Iraqi's have died yet every (well almost) american killed in Iraq was a soldier or in some Iraqi's eye an invader.

That was an obvious generalization.   You have to admit that the death of an Iraqi is treated much differently than the death of an american.  Wether or not they are a combatant does not neccesarily make a difference to some people.

I challenge you to defend the notion that the death of an American in Iraq, would not be celebrated to some extent.

I wonder how many Iraqis kill American soldiers?  I'm not saying he was right, but war is ugly and people can do some pretty fucked up shit under the stress.

Are you serious.  I am talking about the average citizen.  Even in you extreme case there would a lot of people saying amen to those, but you would not see people in the streets dancing and celebrating now would you.

This too.

War is fucking messy. We see it as the media reports it, X amount killed, families informed.

For the soldiers involved, it's not just a case of X soldier died, it's a case of X soldier died in my arms with his intestines hanging out, while he was screaming for his mother. War isn't clean, it isn't accurate and it isn't nice. I'm no fan at all of the Iraq war, but just stop and think what some of our boys over there are experiencing day in, day out. It's enough to turn any man into a wreck, never mind us lot, sat safe behind our computers.

Yeah, I know what you meant.  Different cultures still aren't they.  I am solid in the belief that americans in general are less likely to celebrate the death of people from a different country. 

And stop trying to use extreme examples to prove your point.  It would be like me saying the whole world would have celebrated if someone offed Bush.  Keep to apples, or I will throw oranges at you.

Differnt cultures or not they are still Americans. Most Americans (white males) do celebrate the death of people from other countries they don't like. They just don't do it openly and extremely. Beside that you have to understand that the American soldiers are actually in Iraq. Their country. When a white American is killed in a country of Arabs after they invaded it they tend to celebrate. Same way if the Chinese invaded us we'd celebrate if we killed a bunch of them at once.

It's all just perspective.

Yes. We're in their land. It's theirs. Like I said if we were invaded we'd do the same damn thing to whoever invaded us. Hell we actually do drag bodies through the streets and behead each other sometimes here.

I don't know how we would react if we were invaded.  I don't know f we would have killed a couple of their soldiers (or hired mercs), beat them, burned them, and hung them from a bridge is hard to say, but I do know the Iraqis did it.

Sure I'll raise a few points you can't respond to then when you get angry I'll just go away

Yes there are some foreigners doing those things. But they are actually on the Iraqi side killing the people the Iraqis don't like. I guess a thing like an useful alliance is hard for you to comprehend. 

Beside that the foreigners on the Iraqis side are actually Arab Muslims. Same race and religion.

Hmmm, so all Muslims are Arab? Because I know a lot of what we ran into weren't just "Arabs". Their are branches of Islam if you did not know. They actually hate each other.

Oh and I seem to remember meeting with sheiks that wanted American help getting rid of the "Same race and religion guys".

Yeah, also I seem to remember a few different races also being American not just white.

So an IED explodes, kills 20 iraqis and 2 American soldiers, that is what you call freedom fighters?

No. We're talking about a single US soldier who did something despicable.

You are talking nonsense. A single soldier does something and that naturally means that the US sends criminals to Iraq who are running around doing this shit daily.

Don't bother with facts, logic, or reason. Just spew nonsensical bullshit.

If it weren't for your propensity to do that, your opinion here would probably contribute to the discussion. As it is, it contributes nothing but sad humor.

The majority of foreign fighters are Arab Muslims. I know there are branches of Islam but they both have the same goal: Get the U.S. out of Iraq. When you have a larger more powerful mutual enemy you tend to work along with and ignore people you don't like.

Really now how many of those sheiks are still on your side or weren't being paid off or had some sort of other agenda or were just telling you what you wanted to hear or were working against you the whole time. There are daggers in mens smiles.

I find your inability to look at things from the other side annoying.

Well, the area of Iraq I was in has already been turned over to the Iraqi Army. It is also one of the most peaceful areas. So I guess they were not just telling us what we wanted to hear. They helped us drive the Foreign fighters out.

I guess that the country almost breaking out into civil war(religious) really means they banded together to drive us out.

Oh and another thing that you wouldn't understand is that whole part of the world works around bribes, once you have actually experienced more of the world rather then getting it from the internet, you learn a lot more.
