Whatever "pitched battles" we are seeing in places such as Iraq are mostly the work of nationalist Iraqis, whose passion could be fuelled also by religious fervour.

Wrong, Cyrus. Nearly all of the attacks now in Iraq are the work of foreign jihadists and foreign terrorists. And in the recent elections, those Sunni elements who had previously warned against voting and threatened voters, now themselves voted, and also even even offered to help protect voting Iraqis from being attacked.
