Neither. The US/UK Troops should'nt be there in the first place, and the Arab militants (some, not all) have committed serious crimes against the civilian population as a matter of strategy (whereas the coalition has only done it by accident.)
That being said, I always have a soft spot for the underdog in any conflict, as long as they at least attempt to keep up a facade of nobility. Most of the Arab groups in Iraq do not qualify.

I will go with Rhah's description. If the Arab militants did not torture and kill and drill holes with "black & decker" equipment in their own countrymen, then maybe I would sympathize with them as a "resistance".
But as it is now, I just feel sorry for the people, not really support anyone.

I support the diplomatic efforts on both sides to bring the conflict to a close.

If anyone, the US troops, because they're our guys.
But, at heart, I don't really give a flyinganymore. The thing has dragged on too long for my attention span. And furthermore, I'm tired of people whining about it like
ing emo children, and the rightists counter-whining like they're all Chuck Norris or something.
Newsflash,activistswhiners on both sides: I don't care. STFU, and GTFO myinternetplanetuniverse.
And, stop breathing my air, you're making it smell like Down Syndrome.
Not so much cynical. Just sick and tired of everyone around me acting like retards.

Basically, that, with all theseing threads about "OMG TEH WAR!!1!one" and "ISRAELIS IS MEANIES!!1!"
I'm burnt out on them to the point that I don't want to see one ever again, and I want to seriously just punch the people that make them and rehash the same whining and drama about stupidthey've whined about for five years. O__e;;
Ummm, actually it is the Total War forums, as in the game series. It isn't a war site, it's a game forum that like so many others has spread into a whole bunch of random things that have nothing to do with the game.
That being said, I support the American and British troops and more European nations need to send troops to the Middle East.
Arab militias are more at war with eachother then the US.
Again, it's more of people rehashing the samethat they keep getting gridlocked over.
I'm fine with discussions about war, politics, etc. But when people whine and make drama about the same crap again and again, it gets a little old.
And, before you ask- yes, I can be quite a self-centred egomaniac when I am cranky or tired.
And, no, I should not have stayed up all night.![]()
I'm not Iraqi nor do I have any monetary gain from this conflict, so I can't fully declare favoring for one side or another.
But I admire the nationalist resistance groups for taking on the most brutal and unholy occupation taking place in the world. Despite the use of heavy machinery and modern equipment, Iraqi militias are defiantly taking initiative to punish those trespassers. They deserve respect.
