[QUOTE][b]The overall experience with American troops shows why the anti-government forces and terrorists prefer to attack Iraqis. However, even this is becoming less effective, as better trained Iraqi combat troops appear in greater numbers.[/b][/QUOTE]That's going to be the real solution: more Iraqi combat troops (government loyal ones, anyway) will undermine any anti-american street-cred the insurgents may have.
