Shortest answer; They'll die
Short answer; the will be massacred
Long answer; The will have been lambs to the slaughter
Longer Answer; After the gulf war thousands of Iraqis rose up against Saddam thinking we would remove him from power, we left and they were killed. Do you think a mere fifteen years later the people of Iraq would have already forgotten that. The insurgants know they can play the waiting game until Americas short attention span wanders to whatever the latest political fad is.
Longest answer; There are thousands of Local National Iraqis helping US forces, the media may not want to report on them, but they do exist, they put their lives on the line every day, they are true heros.
"I would guess if we had gone in there, I would still have forces in Baghdad today. We'd be running the country. We would not have been able to get everybody out and bring everybody home.
And the final point that I think needs to be made is this question of casualties. I don't think you could have done all of that without significant additional U.S. casualties, and while everybody was tremendously impressed with the low cost of the (1991) conflict, for the 146 Americans who were killed in action and for their families, it wasn't a cheap war.
And the question in my mind is, how many additional American casualties is Saddam (Hussein) worth? And the answer is, not that damned many. So, I think we got it right, both when we decided to expel him from Kuwait, but also when the President made the decision that we'd achieved our objectives and we were not going to go get bogged down in the problems of trying to take over and govern Iraq."[Dick Cheney 1992 Post Gulf War]

If that many did support the US occupation. Most of them probably aren't very open about it with all the violence that goes on around them. I know if that happened here I would definately not speak openly about it. I would use the voting booths though to show that I would support the movement. Yes there is a chance of attacks at the booths. But they don't know if you vote yes or no. What I am getting at is...if there are many that support, only so many will speak out, and only those few would have to worry. The sad truth would be that more than likely they would be targeted.

to quote the speech from Ron Paul interior the link under: "What if some day it dawns on us that dropping over 5,000 American protection tension workers interior the middle East when you consider that 9/11 isn't a truthful commerce off for the shortcoming of virtually 3,000 American civilians, no count number what number Iraqi, Pakistani and Afghan individuals are killed or displaced? What if occupying countries like Iraq and Afghanistan and bombing Pakistan is promptly related to the hatred directed in direction of us? .......What no count number if that's finally realised that war and protection tension spending is often unfavorable to the financial equipment? What if all wartime spending is paid for in the time of the deceitful and evil approach of inflating and borrowing? .......What if the yankee human beings awakened and understood that the best 'motives' for going to war are virtually constantly in reaction to LIES and promoted with the help of war propaganda with the intention to serve specific hobbies? .......What if Obama has no objective of leaving Iraq? What if a protection tension draft is being planned for, for the wars which will unfold if our remote places coverage isn't replaced? What if the yankee human beings discovered the fact, that our remote places coverage has no longer something to do with national protection, and that it under no circumstances adjustments from one administration to the subsequent? What if war and coaching for war is a racket, serving the specific activity? What if Christianity certainly teaches PEACE, and not 'preventative' wars of agression? What if international relatives is got here across to be extra advantageous to bombs and bribes in retaining united statesa.?......" Now it particularly is a real American Patriot! As for my very own opinion, the war for Iraq develop into already planned and the specific activity communities have been basically fishing around for an excuse to assault. it is going to under no circumstances have occurred, and has been a tragic and poor waste of life.

I agree with the tribune . I really don't see hundreds of thousands supporting us if that was the case we could have been in and out. Hundreds and thousands are a lot of people that would give no enemy anywhere to hide . Fact is they don't want us their they are not on our side there just to afraid to fight us but a hand full hear and there. I don't know if you know this but they think all should die but there own race . There all taught to believe if they kill Americans or any race that isn't one of them god will reward them

If"hundred of thousand Iraqis" had supported the US aggression on Iraq,I raq would not have been an inferno as it is today! It is said that all is fair in love and war. So to justify the illegal and immoral war, the hawks might have declared that hundreds of thousands of Iraqi are ready to invite us.

I don't think it will look very good. The United States entered Iraq in hopes of creating a democracy, instead we are about to leave it in an even worse state than it was before. Sad.

I think they will probably move to areas where they are not known, or even other arab nations like Kuwait or Saudi Arabia.
