5. I don't see how any of them would be terrorists.

4. A combination.
I do not think that there are any "terrorists" there, unless Rumsfeld vists. I think that there are Muslims fighting what Islam defines as a defensive war. Some are from Iraq; others are from other places.

6. There isn't one unified insurgency
Iraq has numerous insurgent groups ranging from small and disconnected to large and well organized. They've even been spotted shooting at each other.

7. According to the generals there are just one tenth of one percent
...of the Iraqis who are insurgents. That is just 23,000 Iraqis. But they have already killed over 100,000 Iraqi men, women, teens, children, infants and elderly and the numbers keep growing. Those estimates then must be daily compounded percentages! Bastards.

8. All of the above.
Some are fighting for free their homeland of foreign occupiation. Some are fighting because they have lost everything in the war. Some fight just because they hate the U.S. Don't make it a black and white picture like Bushit is trying to do.
