If most iraqis dislike Al Qaeda, including the insurgents, how could it ever become an terrorist training camp

Answer 1

Plenty of isolated open space in Iraq to hide a training camp. The general populace might be completely unaware of its existence.

Answer 2

They don't dislike the insurgents! How would you feel if another country came into America, took over, then put Bush on trial. Even if you HATED Bush, you'd be angry because people tend to come together against outside forces. It's true that Saddam did not like Al Qaeda, but many Iraqis support the insurgents because they hope it will get us (America) out of their country. Not everyone supports the insurgents, but enough people do to give them safe harbor and supplies. They want their country back!

Answer 3

If you doubt the facilitation and accommodation of terrorism in the vast, unpopulated stretches of the Iraqi desert, if you cast a blind eye to the cultural and sectarian wars between Shi'ites, Sunnis and Americans in Iraq, if you believe only the news and views that resonate with yours, of course it would seem simple and clear that Iraqi dislike for Al Qaeda should mean a minimum incursion of terrorists in that nation.

Iraq, Iran, Syria, Palestine, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, Afghanistan....none of these Muslim states have the technological, political and moral will and inclination to be peaceful and productive global participants in an economic and political context. The US, unlike Europe and the rest of the world, has tired of the totalitarian or theocratic regimes in these regions and wants to introduce a 20th century concept to these 21st century people, namely: MODERN HUMAN THOUGHT AND CIVILIZATION.

Those who struggle against change, LOSE. It is the American task, unfortunately, to usher in a new century and new global norm to the backwater badlands of the Middle East. For if we shirk our responsibility to do so, the cancer of regression and poverty will affect the US homeland, in more dramatic and persistent ways than witnessed on September 11, 2001.

Answer 4

They infiltrated them the same way the Taliban infiltrated the USA. Remember the highjackers from 9/11 were trained in the USA openly.

Answer 5

Possibly because they are afraid to say anything, fearing that they would be next in line for torture and execution at the hands of the insurgents. They seem to be pretty serious when they lkill women and children in markets, at fuel depots, in mosques etc.
It's kind of like Americans being afraid to say what they really feel for fear of being killed verbally by liberal hate mongers.

Answer 6

If a jihadist Shiite proves that he is the most effective war leader against the Sunnis and the Americans.

Answer 7

it quite is a simpleton clarification to chop up Shiite stable, Sunni undesirable. Iran is attempting to be certain a Shiite presence to dominate the area. If Iraq is left to connect forces with Iran, then each and every of the "professional-west" governments will would desire to combat a conflict. If Iraq is stable as a democracy, as much as that concept horrifies liberals, the full area won't visit pot right into a stronger catastrophe than Lebanon.

Answer 8

Better there than here. Maybe we should pull out and let them come here, the NY and San Fran people will fight them for us instesd of our troops.

Answer 9

they don't ask or care what the people want in a Muslim society

Answer 10
