>"You hope they'll become frustrated with the [insurgents], but they're intimidated, too," Byard said. "Why do they always attack the people who are trying to help them?" [Well, let's try it this way. The British said they were only trying to help peaceful Americans when George Washington and Thomas Jefferson and those other terrorist scum were killing decent people and British soldiers. Why did those Americans always attack the people who said they were just trying to help them?]<
only about 1/3 of the colonists were actively opposed to the Brits, while 1/3 supported the Brits, and about 1/3 were "neutral." Not only does this respond to pro-occupation people who point to the opposition to the US occupation as only a "minority" but it encourages us to remember that a lot of people in Iraq (maybe 1/3? who know?) support the US.
