the Liberation of the Native Americans was a text book case of how a country should be "liberated"
very poor comparison IMHO

You may have heard of the US insurgency in the 1700's, the one complete with guerrilla warriors and the world's first organized sniper corps. To the brits, we were every bit the criminals that the insurgents in Iraq are, and we employed some pretty 'barbaric' tactics ourselves(like specifically targeting British officers for 'execution' in a line of battle).
"US Army Snipers...providing surgical strikes since 1776."
My point however was not that we once had to fight for our freedom, my point was that freedom is an inalienable right, and we are all equally entitled to it IMO...even the dirty unwashed savage masses in Iraq.
