Occupation of Iraq

Consider this. Germany defeated France in WWII and occupied the country. We and the Americans did not accept the defeat of France and saved it by supporting the French resistance and subsequently invading the country and freeing it. Were we not insurgents and have people who fled Iraq not have every right to try to overthrow a government which collaborates with us just as in the case of France with Vichy France. Just who are the ignorant ones today. Are they just ostriches with their proverbial head in the sand attitude.
