From the NYT:
"TEHRAN, Aug. 12 - The American military's advance into the holy city of Najaf in Iraq to crush a Shiite rebel uprising aroused anger and frustration on Thursday among Shiite Muslims abroad. Many blamed the United States for what they described as an intentional and brutal humiliation by an occupying force that would provoke outrage if any holy shrines were destroyed."

(sigh) Like I said, lose-lose.
