Enes, would you share what you have gone through? If not, I understand. I would just like someone else's perspective on things.
I actually have a co-worker who met an Iraqis while she was in Greece. He fled the country while still very young to avoid be forced into the military. She was over visiting him when they brought down Saddam was brought down. She said his reaction was one of joy, happiness that there was an end to the punishment. I guess he went on to tell her of things that would happen, of the torture that went on in Iraq.
I am hoping to meet him so I can personally hear what he thinks now that he is in the US. I just hope he is being truthful with my co-worker, and not one of these that just used her to get over here. I guess time will only tell that story.
Anyway, sorry for rambling on. My point was, there very well could/can be nice Iraqis so don't group all of them together. Like you said, that's no different than grouping all of the Americans together and calling us dumb. It's not fair to those of us who are not ignorant.
