It's a unique war; the Islamic radicals want to take over Iraq in an attempt to build support for their efforts to take over the rest of the Middle East. This is a continuation of the war that radical Islam has been fighting for a long time. They just figure that the region is unstable now and want to force their evil brand of their religion down the throats of the otherwise peaceful adherents to Islam.
Just so you understand... once they take over the middle east they intend to expand. They have openly declared that everyone will convert to Islam; or they will die. It is impossible to negotiate with people like that.
