I'd be willing to bet it's the latter.

People? Probably! Iraqis? I doubt it! A large number of insurgents are not even Iraqis. Many of those we're fighting over there are outsiders trying to make a point.

I'm going to also have to disagree with you. I don't find "an eye for an eye" to be barbaric at all. Perhaps there will be divine justice invoked, perhaps not. Since we have no assurance of such, or understanding of how such a thing might work, serving justice here on Earth, where we can be certain that it occurs is acceptable. In fact, it's partly a good deterrent. It's partly good for everyone else's sanity to know that bad things really DO happen to bad people. It's good that those bad people do not become a drain on the resources of good people.
