Hence why I said the word hypothetically

The article was discussing civilians. I don't think they were talking about those overtly resisting the forces.

3) It's a war...people die in any war. It could have been a lot worse had we not put our soldier's lives in danger and made our sacrifices.

sure, that's the bad side of war. It's unncessary, and people die.

4) I don't see you crying over American soldiers.

Because they are SOLDIERS, not civilians. Its their job to fight the war and they went to Iraq with the intention of fighting a war. Now, while I am against the war, I am not cold-hearted enough to think of them as just soldiers. I am sure they were fine young men/women with families and loved ones. But then again, its the bad side of war, and soldiers die.
