Personally I would not be able to do that. I think it is collaborating with the enemy

For people who go on about patriotism there is a certain lack of vision here. Selective ?

If I were an Iraqi living in Iraq I would be one of those horrible insurgents, sick of the American occupation and doing anything I can to win my country back....the Iraqis in the Iraqi army are just looking for a steady paycheck, since jobs are few and far between there.

No they are not. And what the heck does your second question have to do with your first question? Do you have some bizarre concept that Iraqi soldier are traitors to who or what...their country, other Iraqis, one religious group or another?
There are insurgents who have joined the Iraqi army and the police force to obtain information to use against the Iraqi government, troops and US troops. These terrorists are traitors and spies...but that is vastly different than your implication that all Iraqi soldiers are traitors. Apparently you have never been to Iraq or worked with Iraqi soldiers. And yes I worked with Iraqi troops during my 18 months in Iraq.

The soldiers in the present Iraqi army are probably the same men who served under Saddam Husein. When the US finally pulls out it will be business as usual.They did tell us!

Those who join the army for the US and UK are traitors to their country and people. the western world has everyone blackmailed by money and most people in the west want to be enslaved by greed and corruption but complain about everything. How anyone can support a war to make rich people even richer is beyond me.

Muslims have 2 secs. The shiites will never join our army. The other side would to gain power over the shiites. For them it is a way to prevent being under another Hitler version of a dictator. Sadam on a smaller scale did the same thing to his people as Hitler did to the Jews. I would fight against being under someone like that too. Good question!

No. They are patriots taking advantage of Bush's stupidity.
At least half of them sign up for the free training, weapons, and food and the pay check that the US taxpayers give them, in unaccounted for cash.
Then, when the sun goes down, they use those weapons and training against the occupiers and spend the money you and I paid them to buy better weapons.
They have no allegiance to the occupiers or the puppet regime.

Traitors to whom?To Sadaam?To Iraq?
They would only be traitors if they fought against their country not for it.

No. They're fighting for their freedom, and the good of their country.
