Just awhile back there was a movie with Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L. Jackson that dealt with a very similar scenario.

There is plenty of blame to go round here.   American troops at a high level of intensity, angry Iraqis wanting the Americans out....but the real blame here is for the ones who put both in the position they were in. And much as I'd like to blame Bush and his cronies, the Iraqi leaders are not without fault.   They too need to keep their folks under a bit of control. Loud and angry rock throwing protests in the face of a nervous bunch of people with rifles is not a wise move either.
