I half agree with on-ramp. The only thing is, I don't take such a benign view of the "insurgents." I'm sure some are defending their country, or getting back at the Americans for killing their mother, brother, sister, or whole block.
But I suspect a large number are simply trying to grab power in the time-tested Middle Eastern way, and an even larger number are trying to cause chaos in the hope that an Islamic theocracy will come out of it at the end.
