I agree, it's ignorance, but I also think it's easy to apply an outraged reaction to articles like these due to the same ignorance.
Chalabi's crew pulled down the big Saddam statue, but there were certainly others celebrating, and yanking down posters. Hard to tell if anyone sitting in Iraq can distinguish Chalabi's group from their own. Chances are yes they can. Then again, Iraq is a place where people are used to controlled chaos. This time it's a little less controlled.... but standing in the street firing off a shot gun into the air for no reason, or maybe lots of reasons, is just something that comes natural for a lot of them. To sit here and analyze it before the dust has settled is a little too much like taking the attitude that we've all gone to the Bronx zoo and actually got to see an animal for a change.
