Eclipsed from the headlines by the ongoing carnage, there is an active
civil resistance in Iraq that opposes the occupation, the torture regime
it protects, and the jihadi and Ba'athist 'resistance' alike.

I disagree. How is someone with 'indigenous blood' more 'American' then me? We were both born here / live here. Or does it have to do with percentage of 'indigenous blood'? If someone's ancestors arrived across an ice bridge in ? BC their blood is ... purer(?) ... then the boat people of the last 500+ years (OK, in the case of the Kurds they would be airplane people)?
I refuse to accept that me or mine for some reason of heritage has less claim to NYC USA then someone else. Those Kurdish kids are now as 'American' as an indigenous tribe. Sorry if that's not PC.
(This is making the assumption that the Kurds desire the status of 'American'. They may have other ideas.)
> Imagine the clueless arrogance of "Americans" complaining about people coming to their country from Iraq...
You're confusing arrogance with fear (wanted to use 'terror' but the word should be retired for a while except for Hitchcock revivals). Above poster / know nothing is scared of the 'other', doesn't want brown guys coming over the border to work in the fields, and is terrified that in the near future the native USA-ians are going to have to work in those fields to try and pay for their gasoline.

Propaganda:
The inconvenient facts and unanswered questions surrounding the attacks are legion, but the endemic sloppiness of the self-styled "researchers" is delegitimizing the entire project of critiquing the "official version." The ostentatiously named "Truth movement" is not clearing the air, but muddying the water.

An Historical Guide Through the Balkan Labyrinth
The Balkan region is intensely multicultural - a point of crossroads and clash for some of the world's major religions, cultural spheres, and economic systems. While there have been vicious wars in Balkan history, these have taken place in the context of manipulation by imperial powers and the self-serving local leaders who cater to them.
indigenous blood?
