I'm pretty sure that's a small minority of Iraq's population. You will always have people on both side, I would like to know the % of Iraq's population that actually support the US. Your medias show only the good parts, so you all think that all Iraq is happy now, wich isn't true.

Well its a large enough portion to point out Baath party locations and groups of resistance the the US. Also, why wouldn't you think a large portion would like us? We're giving them things that they never had under Saddam, like food, water and medical attention. There have been anti-american protests in Iraq, but that us to be expected. BTW, the whole reason behind the protests were in reaction to the looting, which they felt the US should have policed. That is an arguable point, but I would rather see more Marines come home safe than beey Abdul from stealing a Sony HD TV from a Baath party headquarters.

As for the US media only showing the good parts, have you been paying attention to the coverage? Everyday the US generals are grilled by US reporters. The US battle plan has been criticized up and down since day one. David Arnet is on Iraqi TV praising their government and saying how Iraq is making the US chantge their strategy because of the "fierce resistance." Yes, resistance so fierce it took us all of 3 weeks to unseat the Baath party and the Republican Guard just disappeared into the populace. Wow, they must really love their leader to just let the United States waltz into the middle of Bagdad.

The US is already taking aim to it's next target in it's middle east takeover: Syria.

1) Please name me one country in the last 50 years that the US has colonized.

2) Syria is bringing it upon themselves. They picked the wrong side, have been dealing weapons to Iraq even after the war began, has been allowing any crazy a**hole to cross the border to try and kill the military (which I don't mind since they are just basically disorganized and being slaughtered. Every nutball that a marine kills is one less that will randomly bomb a hospital or child care facility). The US is not targeting Middle Eastern nations indiscriminately. If anything, the US is showing that they are standing behind what they've said: If you harbeor terrorists or support terrorism... you're next.

And how come they haven't caught Hussein yet? Isn't there some mighty bunkers underneat Bagdad? How come we don't hear about those? Did the US searched them?

I'm not sure what you're implying there, but I think he's very likely in Syria by now, if he's alive. He's one man in a sea of Iraqi's the size of California once he takes off the uniform.
