I dont think there is any physical corelation to Vietnam although you may be right in that it appears that the locals really dont want to be involved and have left it to the US ie basically they are bright enough to know that they dont want to fight a better equiped and motivated enemy.

Hopefully this interview is not representitive of all Iraqi troops.
