I agree 100% with you, some people in the West are blinded by hours of propaganda and no longer think for themselves. To them, their government is always right and everyone who disagrees with their government is a terrorist, no matter what they are fighting for.

The Mahdi army is not a resistance group. Its a deception. If it was resistance then why the hell aren't they fighting the American's?.
