#1 Many Iraqis are angered by Zarqawiâs tactics, but few are convinced U.S. raids kill only foreign militants, rather than Iraqi civilians.

Instinctive badmouthing of U.S. actions without stopping to question terrorist tactics of concealing their activities among the general population is the desired effect. The sooner the ignorant Iraqi gets this and changes their tune accordingly, the sooner their country will be cleaned up and the sooner U.S. forces will leave.

#3 American bombs are an inefficient solution that is used because the Iraqis won't kill the jihadis themselves. There's enough ammo lying around in country to allow the locals to mop up all the Syrians and Iranians in a single night.
