Is one American’s life worthier than thousands of Iraqis?

If we want to win the war we need to stop alienating the Iraqi popluation

My guess is that the US government doesn't give a rats ass about the Iraqi people, which is EXACTLY why we will probably lose the war.

We can kill all the Al Qaeda fighters we want. Without the support of the Iraqi people all the American and British firepower in the world will get us nowhere.

Dude... Most Iraqis I have met dont really hate the Americans, but they are afraid of Ali-baba cutting off their heads. I have eaten tons of Hobus bread drinken gallons of Chai, and played with countless iraqi kids. They arent quite as alienated as you may believe. They are just siding with the side they know will be there for the long run.
