I'm not sure that the massive demonstration that occurred last weekend with over 100,000 Iraqis chanting "death to america" would support this. I never hear the Iraqis state "we want the foreign nationals out", rather I hear them say "we want the americans out". You are free to believe what you want but I have seen little evidence to back that assertion up. Iraq is becoming a theocracy and the opportunity for any real democracy is long gone. They understand this. We, however, haven't quite caught up.
