It certainly gives some insight into why the country seems to be creating extremists.

The extremist were already there. Kind of built in to the system.

Don't worry there be here someday and we can fight them on our own soil.

Sir Bors.
I think that there has been a lot of disrespect and extremely poor PR from the coalition soldiers, on top of the 655 000 killings.

I believe that it is possible to create an extremist by killing or abusing them or their family - certainly you can make someone very grumpy.

And with the economic and security situations so abysmal in Iraq at the moment, people probably have less care for themselves than when career and family provided genuine objects on which a citizen's energies could be focused.



Although I certainly agree that the process of extremist generation is also underway at home, but not with the breakneck speed with which it is being achieved in Iraq.:-2
