all I ask is that you accept the fact that these fighters are 'real Iraqis' too. They're not maniacs, they're not zealots, they're not insane (contrary to the manner they are portrayed in virtually all American media). Their religion and customs probably different than yours. They want a chance to live in peace and make things better for themselves and their families.
We are not fighting al Qaeda in Najaf.
The al-Mehdi army is fighting because a foreign government has illegally invaded their country and they have the right to defend it, and the right to determine their own country's destiny, whatever form that takes.
