And reguardless of their affiliation. they were Iraqis. therefore they were his people. His countrymen. Even if they were considered his subjects. they are still his people
so did most of the european kings and queens right up untill the 1800s.
why should the iraqis be expected to develope as qucik as us? why should we have stepped in and captured saddam? of course the iraqis now sayt thanks, they did have the power/balls to do it themselves.
its just history repeated ans the 'allies' are playing god like usual.
