In probably the most damning reports on President Bush’s claim that all would have been well in Iraq if only the al Qaeda and foreign insurgents didn’t pour into Iraq to take advantage of the situation in a deliberate confrontation against the US, two separate sources have shown the contrary.
And these sources are the Israeli think-tank, Global Research in International Affairs Centre and the Saudi government.
The report showed that Bush had lied to the American people by suggesting that "The US military is fighting the terrorists in Iraq, so we do not have to face them here at home."
The findings indicated the majority of the insurgents have been radicalised by the American presence in Iraq. The Saudi report stated that most insurgents were heeding the calls from clerics to drive infidels out of Arab land. The Israeli report showed that the vast majority of non-Iraqi Arabs killed in Iraq have never taken part in any terrorist activity prior to their arrival in Iraq.
Well, the American people should now realise that what had been said over and over again is very true about the US military presence and conduct in Iraq represent the best recruiting campaign for insurgents.
Also, contrary to the US Adminsitration propaganda, al Qaeda and foreign operatives constitute only a very small percentage, around 10% of insurgency activites.
Now, what was it that Bush said about the insurgents hating ‘freedom’? Well, there may be a tinge of truth in this, because obviously the insurgents want Iraq free from American brand of ‘freedom’, where the Iraqis are subordinated to the occupying American military, while avaricious carpetbaggers ripped off the country's wealth in the most feral manner.
I can only relate the Iraqi feelings to the experience of my family who told me about their fears, loss of dignity, sufferings, and hatred under the occupying Japanese army during WWII.
