As Popular as Stalin?

Daniel Drezner has some nice liberation tidbits, you know - where people who actually lived under the regime of Saddam get to say what they think.

Here's the best bit:

"American troops found that the fleeing Baath Party and paramilitary forces had set up minefields on roads and bridges leading out of the city. Late today an American engineering team was clearing the third of such fields, this one with 30 mines, by detonating them with C4 explosives.


Lt. Col. Duke Deluca, noting that the mines had been made in Italy, said, 'Europeans are antiwar, but they are pro-commerce.'"

If you're looking for quotes about evil Americans and the horrors of the war, don't bother following the link.
