Imagine a joint cuban/iraqi occupation of the united states, under the pretext of enforcing a regime change because warmongering american policies after WWII cost too many innocent lives in the name of capital profits. Wouldnt there also be popular resistance in the US ? How would you call yourselves ? Terrorists ?

40% of your population is living in poverty while corporations are making billions in profit. Over 20.000 americans are killing each other each year as a consequence of your capitalist economy that leaves the poor behind. Saddam just killed 17.000 in 20 years (let's discount the wars and the US embargo).
I'd say the Bush's capitalist regime is way more murderous than Saddam's.

I'm sure Americans cheered when the British were killed, back in the Revolutionary War. Hell, they even wrote songs, didn't they?

ShadowXIX I love your quick highly informative posts that really shoot down the ignorant.
My head nearly exploded when that terrorist lover called the foreign terrorists in Iraq peace loving people who dance in fields of flowers singing about how great America is.
Seriously dude do you really think that the man butchering the construction worker alive is a peace loving hippy!
Nothing from outside of a man's head can drive him to cut a living mans head off with a butcher knife. The American "occupation" of Iraq cannot drive a man to do that. No form of oppression can drive a man to watch and praise allah as your victim gasps for air through his sliced trachea.
The terrorists who are doing this are pure EVIL. The evil inside their own head drives them to blow up peaceful Shiites praying. The Pure evil drives the terrorists in Iraq to butcher a busload of Iraqi police trainees.
Geoge Bush is doing the right thing by killing these evil men while helping Iraq develop itself.

The central question is : What is the humanitarian cost for keeping up a regime or system. The answer is straight :
Iraqi progressive arab nationalism : 850/year
American ultra-capitalism : 20.000/year
Without any doubt, the way more murderous system is Bush's.

That's a rather silly notion. It would NEVER happen. As long as the Second Amendment to the Constitution exists we are not really "invadable", if thats even a word.
Back to the point,
They are not cheering Iraq, Iraq, Iraq.
They are cheering fanatical rantings to a "being" never proven to exist.
