So far, to the best of my knowledge, everyone in my small community grieves for the loss of those allied with the U.S. as well as our own. More than one house here flies the flags of all who stand shoulder to shoulder with U.S. forces alongside "Old Glory". Everyone I know here also either prays or is outwardly concerned for the welfare of the Iraqi people.
Maybe it's different in Evansville, Indiana (or Cherlie's little part of it). Maybe there they give Cherlie a hard time about his nationality (I'm assuming, of course, that Cherlie is a Brit ... perhaps he's from another part of the world. If it turns out he's not either, then he probably needs to seek some serious counciling).

I am sorry about the british loses and even sorrier that they are
friendly fire accidents. I think most Americans share this sentiment. I can understand you being upset about it, I am too and I am not british. Please remember we are not the only ones to kill allies in friendly fire in wartime. Also blame has not been assigned in this incident.
